Hey.
So, it would seem I gave you a solution that’s still more complicated than it needs to be.
You see, I was using Debian at the time I initially played with this, but now I am testing it on Arch. When you check the man pages, you’ll see an interesting option available on Arch.

So…
Waypipe on Debian 13 (latest) is version 0.9.2.
Meanwhile on Arch we have 0.11.0.

There’s an interesting new option, --xwls.

Use xwayland-satellite to run X clients under Wayland; for server or ssh modes. This binds X display sockets for the next available display number and sets the DISPLAY environment variable for the program run under waypipe server. This option will only work if xwayland-satellite is installed and in PATH.

Which means that on Debian you have to:

1. Compile xwayland-satellite
2. Add xwayland-satellite to directory in PATH
3. Compile new version of waypipe from source
4. Add it to directory in PATH, at least for server

While on Arch you just pacman -Sy xwayland-satellite waypipe.

Then it works with waypipe --xwls ssh user@IP program.
It seems to have been added in 0.10.6.

poop gems

At least they’re pretty.

They signed up for the job knowing what it entails.

Doesn’t mean it’s fine.
Based on current events, for police it will heavily depend on circumstances.
But what’s the beef with firemen?

You don’t need OR in a list.

And the you go on to use Termux, and encounter swipe from left to manage sessions.

This seems like it’s for sharing same keyboard and mouse between multiple computers. What I am looking for is for the secondary laptop just to act as a monitor. That’s it. It could just be a video stream of a virtual monitor.

What I mean is the mouse cursor isn’t there when I move it over there. Well, isn’t visible. It still interacts with objects.

Same as this person’s issue: https://discuss.kde.org/t/show-cursor-on-virtual-display-kde-connect-krdc/43421

It wasn’t just Lemmy. Even sdf.org was inaccessible (not responding to ping either). Perhaps admin just checked from local network.

please take a look and tell me what you think

Sorry if it seems like I do, but I in fact do not have a brain.
I just found this tool gets the job done, and that’s it.

I typically just use it in a pretty stupid manual way.

local$ waypipe -c zstd=6 ssh username@IP
remote$ export DISPLAY=:90
remote$ ./xwayland-satellite :90 &
remote$ xfce4-panel

Even the xfce4-panel discovery was an accident.
I was using waypipe before knowing about xwayland-satellite. I wanted to run an X program, so in the same shell I typed vncserver to, well, launch a VNC server. That invoked xfce4-session, BUT since the WAYLAND_DISPLAY was set, XFCE DE attached to waypipe rather than XTigerVNC, launching a full remote desktop over my local one.
And out of that, xfce4-panel proves pretty useful. I can easily launch other programs using GUI, and also see widgets on that panel.

Here’s what I mean, if that sounds confusing:

Plasma panel (bottom) is local, XFCE panel (top and middle bottom) are remote.
Right, and you’re probably wondering why that app launcher at the top looks shattered. Well, both can’t be opened at once. If the application launcher goes out of focus, it closes.
But also, I use the shatter effect in KDE Plasma, so it doesn’t go away immediately. This is just as close as I could get with screenshot timing.

Just a quick note if someone is looking for X programs, you can use xwayland-satellite with waypipe. Set your DISPLAY variable, launch xwayland-satellite with the display number you just used, and X programs should just work as with usual rootless Xwayland (so no window with another window inside of it).

Same, but also for TrackPoint. I have the touchpad disabled. I don’t need to move my hand away from keyboard, I can endlessly scroll through pages at varying speeds just by finger pressure, and even cooler, I can scroll sideways just as easily. Oh, and I can also scroll both vertically and horizontally combined, to just easily navigate in the 2D space, pretty cool.
Although I also use the touchscreen a lot. I don’t want a regular laptop anymore. Unfortunately the 360 ThinkPads seem a bit rare when trying to find a used one.

Let me check what I could get if I tried to buy it new.
ThinkPad L13. Intel Core Ultra 5 125U, 16GB LPDDR5, 512GB SSD, 1920x1200 IPS, WiFi 6E, plastic body. €1,398.76 with 3% student discount. That seems overpriced, at the very least for my use case.
