[How To] Using the Satechi Bluetooth remote with moOde 5.4+

For example if my Mac Air is sleeping and I key in my login password the first keypress is lost and just serves to display the login screen. I end up having to reenter my password after the login screen appears.

Hi, Tim.

It looks like you were right.

I contrived an experiment which shows that when I click the Satechi Remote to "wake up the connection" it takes 3+/- seconds (more likely - than +) for the message to appear in syslog showing that udev has done its job. Other experiments suggest that the Python script starts running much less than a second later whether from udev I call my helper script or use the systemd machinery I've contrived since.

it's annoying because with a 3 second delay a user is likely to keep clicking impatiently. Even I do Tongue

It works fine once awake.

I'm going to move this to a github repro so modifications will be easier to track.

Regards,
Kent

Post edit: appears to be closer to 2 seconds, but still...
