xdotool remote control requested
Howdy. I'm trying to use Bazzite as a Steam streaming box on a laptop.
I have Steam set to auto start, but the mouse cursor starts in the middle of the screen. I'm trying to run an xdotool script on startup to move the cursor to the corner, but this isn't working because KDE is forcing a pop-up asking for remote control every time the first xdotool script is run on restart.
Anyone know how to fix this or work around it? I've seen several other people have the issue but no solutions.

bazzite is wayland only, xdotool only works on x11 sessions and applications i believe
Correct, this tool won't do anything
I believe ydotool is the modern replacement which is pre-installed
oh thats what i was called, i vaguely remember we had something but forgot the name and couldnt find it
well it did do something. it works after I hit the confirm message. ydotool refuses to work entirely
