LittleBigMouse VS wlroots

You can use This program to make the moving between different sized monitors easy.

I use LittleBigMouse from Github. I was able to change how big my 27" 1080p screen was compared to my 25" 1440p monitor. Might work for your scenario.

Hey OP have you tried https://github.com/mgth/LittleBigMouse yet?

I have a setup with a laptop (4k display, 20cm height) and a monitor (2k display, 44cm height). windows detects that the 20cm display is twice the size of the 44cm display because of resolution. I found an app called LittleBigMouse that should fix this, and it does but partially. (see last image/video in imgur for better explanation than what I'm about to say) The mouse doesn't cross the border of the screen when it shouldn't but when it does cross the border where it should it isn't aligned with the screen correctly. I think this may be because of the settings in windows that interfere with LittleBigMouse. If I could get maybe a way to disable the default windows behaviour or a different software that works anyways I would be grateful.

Get the program Littlebigmouse, it can help with this. https://github.com/mgth/LittleBigMouse

>barrier has been unmaintained for a long time.

As if not having new features added for 2 years makes it stop working? barrier is perfectly fine on normal linux desktop installs. I actually use synergy 1.x personally which has been "unmaintained" for much, much longer. Except synergy 1.x will compile and run on anything from windows 98 to ubuntu 5 to debian 12. You can't get a waynergy or inputleap to compile on an OS more than 2 years old. And even then, as you say, it's crapshoot if the particular wayland will have libei; many like sway are actively hostile to it and never will: https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots/issues/2378

It looks like they actually patched it to filter those modes out, so presumably it worked out of the box and was considered undesirable: https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots/issues/3038

I haven't experienced any of those. The video game performance hit may be due to vsync, but I don't play games so I haven't noticed.

You can however use tinywl. It is an example Wayland compositor that can't do more than displaying one application.

Sway/wlroots has implemented this, but I can't find any discussion for KDE.

wlroots is archived on github. Is it abandoned? Just saying, that only means they moved git hosts :-D

A lot of compositors are based no the wlroots lirbary. So they are still sharing the development effort and have a common base, its just in the form of a library rather than a display server.

gamescope use wlroots
