problems with enlightenment/anydesk

Hi altogether, :)

Iim running Linux Lite 6.2 as my daily driver but I also make frequent use of running Debian as a virtual machine (KVM/qemu/virt-manager).
Recently I installed enlightenment on my Debian VM, which uses the xfce DE per default. I already had installed i3 tiling WM, which I use most of the time.

After that I tested enlightenment in the VM and it works very well and meets all my demands. Actually I like it a lot.
I tested the vast majority of installed applications/programmes and they work as expected... except of one:
I ran into problems with anydesk.

As soon as I started anydesk the whole of the VM froze immediately. I couldnit use the mouse any longer, nor would any keyboard input have any effect. :(

Of course I couldnit open a terminal. Fortunately virt-manager provides the possibility of opening a number of virtual terminals by clicking on dedicated keyboard shortcuts. So I logged into virtual terminal 2 and here I could kill the anydesk process.

Curiously enough I was logged out of Debian as a result of that. After logging in again everything worked as expected.

I repeated the procedure a few times more, always resulting in the same outcome.

When using either xfce or i3 tiling WM anydesk works without fail.

So whatis preventing anydesk from working with enlightenment? Why would starting the programme make the VM freeze? :scratch:

Thanks a lot in advance.

Many greetings from Rosika :)
