3**Q: How can I run wayvnc in headless mode/over an SSH session?**
4
5A: Set the environment variables `WLR_BACKENDS=headless` and
6`WLR_LIBINPUT_NO_DEVICES=1` before starting sway, then run wayvnc as normal.

8**Q: How can I pass my mod-key from Sway to the remote desktop session?**
9
10A: Create an almost empty mode in your sway config. Example:
11```
12mode passthrough {
13	bindsym $mod+Pause mode default
14}
15bindsym $mod+Pause mode passthrough
16```
17This makes it so that when you press $mod+Pause, all keybindings, except the one
18to switch back, are disabled.

20**Q: Not all symbols show up when I'm typing. What can I do to fix this?**
21
22A: Try setting the keyboard layout in wayvnc to the one that most closely
23matches the keyboard layout that you're using on the client side. An exact
24layout isn't needed, just one that has all the symbols that you use.
