Sorry, I meant xrdp --- xrdp can be used with a vnc viewer, or rdesktop or xfreerdp. > Tigervnc comes with a simple but well-working server to mirror > your display to a VNC client (which it also provides and which I find works > better than KDE's krdc). It doesn't seem to depend on freerdp AFAICT. I'm not sure if that's easier --- and why shouldn't I use the second monitor which I have around anyway. > >Well, any device to switch USB devices between multiple computers that > >doesn't make sure that the devices keep their settings would be entirely > >useless. > IMHO, an OS that doesn't do this is almost equally useless.. I wouldn't want my OS to re-partition an USB disk every time I plug it in in order to make sure it keeps its settings. Perhaps I want different repeat rates and delays for each keyboard I have when I "switch" keyboards --- and is it possible for a computer to distinguish one keyboard from another? So far, they still even haven't made keyboards that tell the computer how many keys they have. I have a collection between 101 or what it was (102?), 105 and 122 keys (or so), and I have always been too lazy to count the keys. So I keep a bunch of .Xmodmap around, one for each keyboard ... Anyway, someone suggested a software called "barrier". I tried it yesterday, and works great: https://github.com/debauchee/barrier.git It's one of the softwares everyone should know about ...
