and notebook sharing the same keyboard and mouse.

Moving the mouse over the edge of the screen into the direction of the other device brings the mouse focus to the other device - just like moving the mouse between displays in a dual screen setup.

The keyboard focus follows. It is like a kvm that is controlled by the mouse position.

Let's !

I'll give away so much: and notebook…

  • do not use extra software
  • do not have a data connection
  • it is a hardware solution
  • you could place any device in place of my Linux devices - windows, mac, android

Let's some more!

BTW: when the mouse/keyboard focus moves to the Librem5 which is connected to an usb-hub the screen activates nicely - no need to press a button.

@me @zeroday I still don't get it. How is the setup? Is it a hardware kvm or is it software?

Hardware which contains some . But no software installed on the two devices sharing mouse/keyboard.

It's like a KVM.
