Show HN: A VNC viewer for eInk devices capable of 30 FPS when writing text
I did this once, with a shared terminal via screen or tmux (and thus not VNC). You can install https://github.com/Eeems-Org/oxide and a terminal application via the toltec repoitories and then ssh (or mosh) from remarkable to the device that has the keyboard.
- 1-liner to build an app, GUI included

Remarkable + KoReader
On my RM2 I have a set-up with Oxide (https://github.com/Eeems/oxide), remarkable2-framebuffer, (https://github.com/ddvk/remarkable2-framebuffer), touchgestures (https://github.com/ddvk/remarkable-touchgestures) and KOReader. It's fine, you can switch between Xochitl (reMarkable UI) and KOReader with gestures, but it needs some Linux knowledge to set it up correctly.

Displaying last screen as sleep / suspend screen?
Maybe you want to take a look at using a launcher then. I know that [Oxide](https://github.com/Eeems/oxide) adds a custom'ish sleepscreen to all apps and maybe overrides the xochitl one with a transparent supporting one.

I made a python library for developing apps on the RM!
https://github.com/rmkit-dev/rmkit/issues/181 This might be of some help! :)

rmview / screen share
I've found that if I use any of the toltec packages that do things with the screen, like launchers, iago,etc, this happens. When I sat down and debugged it by removing packages one by one it came down to the display package that they all depend on. I think I've filed a bug for it on GitHub. Nope, I mentioned it in a comment in a bug on github.

How to install Harmony (or other additional stuff) on rm2
I'm desperately trying to install Harmony (https://github.com/rmkit-dev/rmkit/tree/master/src/harmony) on my RM2.

Remarkable genie
I want to download the iago hack to have shapes but it requires lamp and genie, it being a gesture configurator. I downloaded all three but i dont know how to add the config file to create the gesture. Any help would be appreciated
-
I love using boxes or circles to draw mindmaps on the reMarkable, however...
After all of that, I can activate iago by swiping down with three fingers. (The "direction=right" definition allow for you swipe "down" when the tablet is in landscape mode. Basically, genie doesn't know about landscape mode; everything looks like portrait mode to it.) You can, of course, set your own gestures to trigger iago. The genie config file is documented on github.

Redux and base RM power management
you can disable remux's power management using a config option (as specified in the README): https://github.com/rmkit-dev/rmkit/tree/master/src/remux, but i think what is happening is due to xochitl powering stuff off.

Slow waking after Remux install
