The ReMoko version on the svn is my work version, I know that I have relative path and also the setup.py is incomplete, and some other glitches remain there.

The server handles all the HID communications, is like a bridge for the client UI, I use a unix socket because the BlueZ devs recommend it to me, besides a dbus interface will be slower, because in the mouse profile I have to send every small movement (pixel by pixel). > > > > I think it would be great to have a remoko Debian package, but there is > some work left.

Yes, I already made more code, but right now I don't have time and concentration until I finish my last exam (16 Set) :( Thanks for the tips. I will get in touch with you after 16 Set.
