Grab Error: IoError

[Calab]

Running Linux Mint Cinnamon 21.3 with 6.5.0-26-generic kernel. When I have mouse-actions-gui running and try to do my first gesture (drag to the left with my right mouse button to perform the keystroke Alt+Left) the following occurs and no more gestures are detected:

[2024-03-19T23:11:59Z INFO  mouse_actions::config] Watch the config "/home/steve/.config/mouse-actions.json" !
root_loop
[2024-03-19T23:12:02Z INFO  mouse_actions::process_event]      → cmd ["Alt+Left"]
[2024-03-19T23:12:05Z ERROR mouse_actions::process_args] Grab Error: IoError(
        Os {

            kind: Interrupted,
            message: "Interrupted system call",
        },
    )

I believe that I have met all the requirements listed. Any idea why it doesn't work? What do you need to help troubleshoot this?

In trace mode I see the following line in the output when I try to use a gesture.

2024-03-20T00:46:06Z TRACE mouse_actions::process_event] spawn result : Err(Os { code: 2, kind: NotFound, message: "No such file or directory" })

Do you know what file it is looking for?

it's the file you configured as command in your gesture config

Just to follow up...

I was trying to bind mouse strokes to key strokes.

My solution was to install EasyStroke instead.

The command part is to specify a command to be executed - a shell command ! - e.g., xdotool key alt+Left And not just ["Alt+Left"] !
