I cannot xdotool my way to success. Can you give me any more information to collect. I may have to restart this system soon.
I can get logs. I am close to being able to replicate this:
I remote in, input does not work.
I tried this:
PID=$(ps -o pid= -C nxnode.bin | tail -n1 | tr -d ' ')
echo "Tracing nxnode PID: $PID"
sudo timeout 6s strace -tt -e trace=openat -p "$PID" -o /tmp/nxnode.open || true
grep -F '/dev/uinput' /tmp/nxnode.open || echo "no /dev/uinput open() attempts recorded"This stopped working in the erroring session.
This unstuck it:
DISPLAY=:0 xdotool mousemove 200 200 click 3That stopped working.
Today I tried this:
DISPLAY=:0 xdotool mousemove 200 200 click 3PID=$(ps -o pid= -C nxnode.bin | tail -n1 | tr -d ' ')
echo "Tracing nxnode PID: $PID"
sudo timeout 6s strace -tt -e trace=openat -p "$PID" -o /tmp/nxnode.open || true
DISPLAY=:0 xdotool mousemove 200 200 click 3
DISPLAY=:0 xdotool key ctrl+alt+t
DISPLAY=:0 xdotool type "da"
DISPLAY=:0 xdotool type "da"
DISPLAY=:0 xdotool type "da"
DISPLAY=:0 xdotool key ctrl+alt+t
DISPLAY=:0 xdotool type "da"
DISPLAY=:0 xdotool type "da"
DISPLAY=:0 xdotool type "da"
That worked twice.
What does fix it everytime is me coming to the physical ps/2 keyboard and typing. Session unsticks everytime.
I sent the server logs to the email address.
Is there a way (besides out of band software management) to make it auto install?
The one thing I see going against this is the prompt for install of device drivers.
No big deal. Just was looking at this because every time I get prompted to update a server, I am logging in to do something important, so updates get delayed often.
Thanks for the answer!!!!
