`virtboard` doesn't do anything on start

Epic: https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/use-cases/issues/22

What problem did you encounter

What is the current behaviour?

It currently starts but doesn't do anything (or at least, I didn't notice it doing anything); It doesn't crash (but maybe it should)

the following error message is displayed

No input method manager global, some functionality unavailable
Could not register to session manager: Cannot invoke method; proxy is for a well-known name without an owner and proxy was constructed with the G_DBUS_PROXY_FLAGS_DO_NOT_AUTO_START flag

(process:14906): GLib-CRITICAL **: 15:07:06.961: g_source_remove: assertion 'tag > 0' failed

(process:14906): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 15:07:06.961: g_object_set: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed
wl_surface@18: error 0: Specified scale value (0) is not positive

How to reproduce

  • start sway (using gdm or from a vconsole, doesn't matter)
  • maybe run gnome-session --session=phosh (doesn't matter whether phosh is here)
  • virtboard

How easily reproducible is it?

Always reproduces on my setup.

Which version did you encounter the bug in?

I compiled it myself.

commit: 0bab93edb997035e3f69ac408d72f5e4f6947a20 (HEAD -> master, origin/master, origin/HEAD) Merge branch 'dbus_name' into 'master'

What OS is affected?

  • PureOS

What compositor did you use?

  • sway version 1.1.1, compiled manually and using wlroots 0.6 from the purism repo

What hardware are you running virtboard on?

non-tactile laptop computer
