XGB: conn.go:47: Could not get authority info: EOF
The XGB include breaks if you aren't running XWindows (i.e. running Wayland). There is a uinput go library that works for both Wayland and X11. I think the desktop code also uses the XGB for 'last window' widget, etc, so it may not be a direct swap, but it would be nice if we didn't throw errors if you aren't running XWindows. Maybe at least a toggle to not run that code-path as a config?
The X connection should already be entirely optional. What errors are you seeing? uinput has neither X nor Wayland dependencies, but Wayland may only support reading events via libinput.
I'll have to put the code back in to get the error messages - my bad. Will do so later tonight.
Here is the stderr output

Hi, Try to add this line to your udev rules : KERNEL=="uinput", MODE="0666"
