i can’t resolve the errors so i am asking for help. if there’s more information needed please ask away so i can provide more information.
i already added --compat to bluetoot config but it did not seem to work. sadly the tool relies on the older sdp and i can’t get it to work.
also i do use portmaster which also might interfere with incoming connections (but not bluetooth).
regards

hi and tx for asking! glas someone even read my post besides the moderator. and yes BT does work as i regularly use a BT Mouse due to my hatred towards touchpads. also occasional bt headsets do work as well.
However, as I have no idea on what may be the cause of the issue and how to fix it, I decided at the time that it would be a waste of both your and my time if I was to post a reply telling you that I had no idea.

First of all, thank you very much to everyone who is trying to help me. It is not my intention to offend anyone, but I find many of these Arch instructions too cryptic. I haven’t been using Linux for very long and am learning a lot, even though I don’t always understand everything. It was supposed to be Arch, but I chose Manjaro because it’s easier to use. Apparently, Manjaro doesn’t have the best reputation within the Arch community, so I asked in this forum to avoid any potential insults. still whenever i look at most of the official documentation, i feel like a small kid that is learning how to eat properly instead of poking it’s eyes out with the fork. i need some guidance in order to not turn out blind in the end. so tx all again who is taking the time to bear with me.
@ [terashy88]
i did deactivate portmaster just to see if it would change anything, sadly to no avail.
also due to having portmaster running i did not install ufw. i#m not familiar with kde connect. what is it good for/ what does it do/help with, especially in this context?
the Urserver process is marked green so i assume portmaster is not blocking it.
I guess it’s just that no one here has personal experience with the program that you are trying to use, nor do we know what you are trying to use it for.
We just don’t know.
I’m all for experimenting and trying - and I often do just for the fun of it.
But this one I cannot - I do not own any remote controlled devices,
(besides an Android smartphone and a Laptop that this software could probably be used on to interact with each other)
and:
I don’t run Manjaro on real Hardware - just in a VM
Main OS is Debian.
I could install it here, but: would it be the same ?
i can explain what it does. i do like to watch movies with my kid who has a tv with a hdmi input but no digital player or any other sort of device. so everytime we want to watch a movie that is apporpriate for the kids age i place my laptop next to the tv and fire away. but the laptop has no remote which kinda sucks when u are watching a movie. here’s where universal remote kicks in. it’s basically a touchpad (there’s several other remotes too and for different manufactureres/devices as well) for android (and ios iirc). that way i fire up the server on the laptop and the phone app connects to it and i can use it as if it was real keyboard/mouse. it works on win and i thought i#d be able to use it on linux too but it’s always complicated when i try to run things on linux lol.
