Yeah, I know about VNC, qemu, rdesktop, VMware, synergy, x2vnc, and
some other things. I need a way to enter input before the network is up.
After the network is up, I'll be using synergy.
I can install as much software as I want on the Linux side, but it needs
to look like a hardware keyboard to the Windows box. Sorry I didn't make
that clear in my first post.
