libinput-gestures failed to start as a desktop application
As I tried to start the libinput-gestures after installation:
libinput-gestures-setup start
It failed
libinput-gestures failed to start as a desktop application.
I ventured through Google, but got not solution.
Until I started to try other touchpad drivers, I saw a similar command I just used when installing libinput gestures
:
sudo gpasswd -a $USER input
In order to use libinput gestures
, the current user must be added into the input
group, but it won't take effect until you run the following command to join the group you've just added yourself to:
newgrp input
The newgrp command is used to change the current group ID during a login session.
The official docs suggested reboot after adding user to input
group.
Obviously too long, I didn't read.
