The thing is like this: I have a windows laptop I use for work, and a Linux desktop machine. I have a single screen keyboard etc. and I switch between the two using a docking station. But, I wonder if there is a way for me to “cut the middle man” and just plug/unplug my linux machine.
I guess I can use a remote desktop solution approach on my laptop, but I wonder if there is a more “extreme” solution. Mostly since I have only one Ethernet port in my home office.
Why not just use something like Synergy so you can control both machines from the mouse+kb at your desktop? Just enable the software when you need to and you can move the mouse off the edge of the screen and onto the other machine as if it were a second monitor. That’s what I do with laptop + desktop setups. Get a small cheap Ethernet switch so you can plug both machines in.
Synergy doesn’t work with Wayland, sadly.
That is a remarkable tool. Here is a demo.
