Panics immediately on any mouse movement

[WhiskeyTuesday]

Describe the bug
I just built from source as per the docs and it panics on any mouse movement within the window

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. launch
2. move mouse

Expected behavior
nothing

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Pop_OS 22.04
• Neovide Version 0.10.4
• Neovim Version 0.6.1

Please run neovide --log and paste the contents of the .log file created in the current directory here:
file only contains one line, asserting that neovide is version 0.10.4

Additional context
running neovide --nofork -- -u x (to eliminate the possibility that it's my config) results in:

Same thing for me !

It must be something new in version 0.10.4 since I installed this just yesterday.

[edi9999]

Could be linked to this change :

5b4ae91

I've just reverted to 0.10.3 and it works well with this version.

[falcucci]

I couldn't reproduce that on macos ventura and NVIM v0.9.0 and have any problem so far.

@edi9999 instead of downgrade neovide, did you try to update nvim instead?

just to check out the main problem here.

I guess it can be the nvim version and potentially the neovide compatibility.

[edi9999]

This is my nvim version :

$ nvim --version
NVIM v0.6.1
Build type: Release
LuaJIT 2.1.0-beta3
Compiled by team+vim@tracker.debian.org

Features: +acl +iconv +tui
See ":help feature-compile"

   system vimrc file: "$VIM/sysinit.vim"
  fall-back for $VIM: "/usr/share/nvim"

Run :checkhealth for more info

[Kethku]

That's certainly the issue. I won't be at my computer for a bit but I can try to get a hot fix going shortly. In the meantime, try updating nvim to 0.9

[edi9999]

I've tried with 0.7.2 of neovim which is the version provided in

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:neovim-ppa/stable

It didn't work either.

Now I'm going to try :

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:neovim-ppa/unstable

But I don't really like that cause I've had many issues in the past because of unstable neovim that was updated every day and had quite a few bugs.

[edi9999]

It indeed works with the neovim 0.9.0 version, however, I will rather fix my neovide version to 0.10.3 and neovim to 0.7.2

neovide --nofork

I am encountering the same glitch and registering the same errors on openSUSE Tumbleweed with the latest Release 0.10.4 of both the neovide.tar.gz Linux binary and the resulting ~/.cargo/bin/neovide binary that is built from the source: cargo install --git https://github.com/neovide/neovide

1. Linux Environment:

~/.cargo/bin/lsb_release --all
LSB Version:    n/a

2. Rustlang Environment:

~/.cargo/bin/cargo --version
cargo 1.70.0-nightly (7d3033d2e 2023-03-08)

3. Neovim Ecosystem:

The neovide_backtraces.log echoes that of @WhiskeyTuesday and is therefore not necessary to replicate.

I have fallen back on the prior Release 0.10.3, which holds steady to the input from the mouse, but I am of the feeling that I could be missing out on the latest features and improvements.

Any hack to forge a continuous and decent dance with Release 0.10.4 of neovide?

[WhiskeyTuesday]

Switching from 0.6.1 (installed with apt) to 0.9.0 (installed with bob) did indeed solve the problem for me

[bedaro]

I'm having the same problem. I'd like to point out that the neovide website says it's supposed to be compatible with nvim 0.6 or later, so upgrading nvim should not be necessary and I too don't want a bleeding-edge neovim.

[falcucci]

@bedaro as everyone else who had this problem, the workaround is upgrade your neovim to 0.9 at the moment.

@Kethku maybe we should write down a note that we highly recommend nvim 0.9?

[fredizzimo]

This was an oversight when we merged this #1766. It now requires Neovim 0.8. I believe that respecting the mousemoveevent option (which is default off, and unsupported on older versions) should fix this and also the terminal mode cursor issue mentioned above.

[Kethku]

Fixed
