How to install Barrier?
Can't recall if I tried barrier on the PP or PPPro but just in case, if you truly get stuck (and because I don't think barrier works so well in CLI) you might want to check https://github.com/Blub/netevent

HOWTO: connecting a RPi based arcade joystick via WiFi
I have a Deck since Monday and start to tinker with it. I also have Picade Console from Pimonori which is basically a RaspberryPi Hat with nice buttons, a joystick and a cool case. The problem is that it's not a controller proper but rather a full-on console, namely you plug it to your TV and play. To make it work as-is with the SteamDeck I had to use a little trick : redirecting input events, e.g keypress, from one device to the other. There are multiple solutions for that e.g uinput-mapper https://github.com/MerlijnWajer/uinput-mapper , potentially barrier, a software KVM https://github.com/debauchee/barrier but I decide to stick to a minimalist solution, netevent https://github.com/Blub/netevent that just brings input events from one device to another over e.g ssh.

Using a Picade as wireless controller
build https://github.com/Blub/netevent on the Deck (connect via ssh, allow for system write, update packages, install build essentials and libc librairies, build),

Searching packages via filename, e.g getopt.h would return glibc
Hi, I'm trying to build https://github.com/Blub/netevent and missing headers, e.g getopt.h that I found thanks to Debian filename search https://www.debian.org/distrib/packages#search_contents but somehow I fail to find the equivalent for Arch or AUR. Is it possible and if so how?

getopt.h missing while trying to build netevent on SteamOS (Arch based)
Hi, I'm trying to build https://github.com/Blub/netevent after successfully doing so on Ubuntu and Raspbian devices, thus insuring the idea (connecting a PiCade to another computer as arcade input) works.

Hacking my ReMarkable tablet into a live presentation tool
Awesome project. Lovely to see something like this come together so quickly!
The core architecture is to ssh in to the machine, and forward Linux /dev/input* events to a python app that re-emits websocket events.
This makes me think a little bit of netevent[1], which is a small utility for forwarding/cloning input events, usually used with ssh to forward between machines. It would allow for the remarkable to act as just another generic input for a presentation laptop, for example. One might be able to then use Gromit-MPX[2] or DrawOnYourScreen to turn that forwarded input into on-screen drawing.

Wayland vs. X – Overview
libei looks useful. But IDK why libei is necessary to run Barrier with Wayland?
For client systems, couldn't there just be a virtual /dev/inputXYZ that Barrier forwards events through
And for host systems, it looks like xev only logs input events when the window is focused.
Is xeyes still broken on Wayland, and how to fix it so that it would work with Barrier?
With Barrier, when the mouse cursor reaches a screen boundary, the keyboard and mouse input are then passed to a different X session on another box until the cursor again crosses a screen boundary rule.
Barrier is a fork of Synergy's open core: https://github.com/debauchee/barrier

KVM Switch for Gaming and WFH
I have a similar gaming/WFH setup (2 monitors at 1440p 144hz) and I’ve been using Barrier instead of a physical kvm, and it works really well. Not sure if you’re open to a software kvm but if you are, I’m happy to answer any questions about it if you have any.

Autoswap Keyboard Layouts based on Operating System
Have you tried Barrier? I casually used it to swap between my main rig and my MBP. Took a minute to get it setup but once I sorted it all out it worked pretty well. It has some settings and tweaks built in to address some of the layout issues you mentioned...

IT/programming multi-monitor setup? (coming from 6x old 21" square)
Sorry, probably not entirely on topic and can't answer anything reliable about the multimonitor stuff, but a tip regarding the 2 mice and 2 keyboards for the 2 different computers: use this: https://github.com/debauchee/barrier It's oss multi-os software that lets you use one mouse and keyboard (server) on several PCs (clients) easily over your LAN.
