Adding context here:

In my experience the closest successful installs were are on distros that have X11, systemd, and the apt package manager (because of portaudio19-dev availability).

I recommend a combination of pyenv and poetry to manage versioning and environment in Python. The versions of Python should build cleanly meaning that depending on distro you might have to add libraries to satisfy its dependencies.

@rbrisita @Notnaton I'm now on Xorg, and the exact same error is happening, so this has nothing to do with Wayland.

On my end, got it to run via cloning the repo and using that. Using Fedora with Xorg windowing system. It's not the mac experience yet, but have hope that it will get there sometime soon.

@Notnaton Took a look at your PR. For the AttributeError: module 'Xlib.X' has no attribute 'FamilyServerInterpreted' error, you need to enter poetry shell, and install that version of python-xlib
pip install python-xlib==0.31. It should resolve that particular issue.

@mysticaltech @Notnaton I am new to 01 Light. I am using Ubuntu 22.04. When I do the following "poetry run 01 then try to record by Holding down the space bar, nothing happens. This is because the pynput library does not work with Wayland. A friend and I tested small pynput scripts. Didn't work with Wayland. Worked with X.org

pynput is used in software/source/client/base_device.py
