I'm using Fusuma along with Dotool (not Xdotool, just "dotool") to be able to use gestures with my Apple Magic Trackpad 2.

Everything works fine except randomly (between 30 mins to a few hours) it will all stop working and I have to pkill Fusuma and restart it to get things working again.

I assume this is something I have done to screw up my own setup due to my lack of understanding. I don't know how to go about diagnosing the issue to track down what the problem is. The mouse and keyboard continue to work when I have to restart, only the gestures fail.

Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS - GNOME Wayland (the reason I use dotool over xdotool)

Any advice welcome.

My fusuma config file:

# General configuration:
# Action timeout is 1000ms (1 second)
# Adjust this if gestures feel too slow or too fast.
action_timeout: 1000

# For pinch and rotation, specify number of fingers
# pinch_fingers: 2
# rotate_fingers: 2
