Controller doesn't inhibit idle

[ghost]

I am trying to use this to inhibit idle, but it seems that whenever I run the command, it registers the controller fine, but idle is not inhibited. Is there any way to more verbose output? There are no errors or anything else when ran normally, so I can't really figure out what this issue is.

What's your compositor?

riverwm, I am pretty sure it used to work about a year ago, but haven't really played games with a gamepad since then, so I might be mistaken.

Can you try on sway?

[ghost]

Yes, it works one sway. However, I talked with the dev of river and he said, that sway has implemented the protocol incorrectly and that this PR will cause wljoywake to stop working on sway as well.
There is a bit more information about it on this issue.

[nowrep]

Yeah that makes sense. Not much to do here other than use completely different mechanism of idle inhibit (maybe systemd).

[ghost]

Yea, seems logind or elogind, in case of a different init, might be the only real solution
