I could probably phrase my need better. I would like to -Use PDA as an auxiliary display to Desktop. -Display an X screen on the PDA, operating much like TwinView. The mouse cursor would be able to move onto and interact with display. -not required to have PDA touchscreen input, just a dumb display
Possible solutions I was not really thinking along the lines of DisplayLink or any kind of HID solution. Hopefully there is a userspace only solution more like: A: -a server running on the PDA providing a linux frame buffer -Desktop Xorg would incorporate this frame buffer as another screen OR B: -PDA runs an Xorg server, and Desktop Xorg incorporates this as a remote server -Dave On Wed, Jan 27, 2010 at 12:20 PM, Wichmann, Mats D <[email protected]> wrote: > [email protected] wrote: >> Hi, >> I was wondering if there was a way to use a WiFi or USB connected >> CE/Mobile PocketPC as another X screen.
