I use xbindkeys to copy and paste using mouse 8 and mouse 9 buttons.
It worked with ubuntu 20.10 but since I upgraded to 21.04, it stopped working in some applications.
The issue seems to be coming from xte
If I run sleep 4; xte 'key v'
in the terminal And
- switch to nautilus it doesn't print a
v
- switch to terminal it doesn't print a
v
- switch to firefox it doesn't print a
v
- switch to chrome it does print a
v
- switch to signal it does print a
v
- switch to slack it does print a
v
- switch to discord it does print a
v
How come it stopped working in some applications but not others ?
How can I debug this ?
