Description Aleksey Samoilov 2017-03-07 14:10:20 UTC
Hello. I'm running Open Arena (first-person shooter game) in Plasma-Wayland session. In game menu mouse cursor are disappear, but in the game itself cursor all the time pointing down ("looks at the floor"). In Xonotic (both glx and sdl versions) same issue.

My system: KDE Neon Developer Unstable, Intel Pentium 2020M with Intel HD Graphics, Xwayland 1.19, modesetting-driver.

I'm having problems to understand the problem not knowing the game. Can you please attach screenshots to illustrate?

Weapons all the time pointing down. Sometimes an inscription appears: "Pointer motion confined to the current window"

Update: after last updates from KDE Neon repo, Xonotic works fine in window and fullscreen mode. OpenArena works fine in window mode to, but in fullscreen still have an this issue. And in order to navigate in game menu (for example to normal quit) you have to press and hold the "Esc" button (when appear "Pointer motion confined to the current window"). It's annoying.

The escape key not working should also be fixed by now.
