Remote GIMX does not get any event

I have similar problem, I can't send keys even from localhost to localhost:

Server:

Code: Select all

~  gimx --status --src 127.0.0.1:80808 --type DS4
controller #1: option -s with value `127.0.0.1:80808'
controller #1: option -t with value `DS4'
status flag is set
using default refresh period: 10.00ms
Warning: can't open macro directory /home/sp//.gimx//macros/
(nothing ever appears after that warning)

Client:

Code: Select all

~  gimx -d 127.0.0.1:80808 --event="up(255)"
controller #1: option -d with value `127.0.0.1:80808'
now reading arguments for controller #2
controller #2: option -e with value `up(0)'
Remote GIMX detected, controller type is: DS4.
using default refresh period: 10.00ms
The --event argument may require running two gimx instances.
I've also tried it with config file, but it doesn't matter. Also tested it on 5.8 and 6.0. OS is updated arch, everything else works just fine.

The argument order matters. Try this command:

Code: Select all

gimx --event="up(255)" -d 127.0.0.1:80808

Thanks, that works. Strangely enough, even my application mimicking as gimx-remote started working after that.
