since the Plasma 6.4.0 update rather it’s here in Reborn or another Arch based distro when I open System Setting, Mouse & Touchpad, Configure Extra Buttons I can click on Add Binding but when I click either of the side buttons on my mouse nothing happens. This is annoying cause I normally assign them to the control key so clicking them does nothing. Is there a GUI for Wayland I can use in the meantime so as not to have to go through a headache of trying to do it via the terminal?
