Question #697377 on Xpad changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/xpad/+question/697377

    Status: Open => Answered

Arthur Borsboom proposed the following answer:
After debugging, I have found the cause of Xpad not working anymore.
Ubuntu 21 has changed to Wayland (by default) and apparently Xpad is not
fully compatible with Wayland.

I logged out from Ubuntu.
I selected "Ubuntu on Xorg" as a session instead of "Ubuntu" (at login
screen > right bottom > wheel/settings).
I logged in.

I bet if you select "Ubuntu as Xorg", Xpad starts working again.
Would you mind confirming this?

Since Wayland seems to be the future, Xpad needs work to make it compatible.
I will create a bug report.

Thanks for reporting this issue.
