[X11] My cursor is not captured in game

Open Telokis opened this issue 1 month ago • 0 comments

Describe the bug Cursor not captured in game. In either Factorio (through Steam) or Minecraft (through PrismLauncher).
I didn't try any other game yet. They both show properly in OBS but with no cursor.

System (please complete the following information):

OS: Linux Mint 22.2
GPU: NVIDIA 3080Ti
Mesa version: How to check?

Game log:

Paste game terminal output here.
Make sure to set OBS_VKCAPTURE_QUIET=0 environment variable.

It's a Steam game, I not sure how to launch it through the terminal.
