service won't start

Open rheesus opened this issue 10 months ago • 3 comments

i've installed input-emulator with the following commands

$ meson build
$ meson compile -C build
$ meson install -C build

on running the example for touch, the following happens

[user1@archlinux ~]$ input-emulator start touch --x-max 2560 --y-max 1440 --slots 4
Starting input-emulator service...
[user1@archlinux ~]$ input-emulator status
Please start service using the 'input-emulator start <device>' command
[user1@archlinux ~]$ input-emulator touch tap 1280 720
Please start service using the 'input-emulator start <device>' command

it's the same for mouse and kdb
