Tablet says connected, but no response.

Post by firecow »

Hi...

Thanks for this awesomo project.

One small problem though..

From my Samsung Galaxy Tablet i connect to my XUbuntu 13.10 computer.
Terminal writes

Code: Select all

Waiting for incoming connections on ip:
192.168.1.2 on port 2302
Client connected with thread -1229120704
But ehhmmm.. No movement or keyboard presses reach the computer..

Is there anything I could do to make this easier to debug?

Code: Select all

sudo ufw status
Status: inactive
Tablet and computer are on same network. (Obviously, since it connects)

Best

run the server with root permissions.

sudo ./droidmote 2302 password

I have the same problem. I am running droidmote as root, and it used to work perfectly. I updated my kernel yesterday and since then it stopped working. This is the second time it happens, but the last time I didn't have the latest droidmote version and updating fixed it.

Linux : Linux version 3.13.4-1-ARCH
Droidmote : droidmote-server-linux-x64-v2.1.9
Android : 4.3 (Sony Z1)

Any suggestion?

Be sure that your new kernel have the uinput module compiled inside.

Be sure to run the server as root.

To see if you have uinput, with terminal look if you have /dev/uinput
