Hello! I have a 2in1 reversible tablet with touchscreen and stylus, running fedora. My laptop runs EndeavourOS. both with wayland session.
I’d like to use my tablet as input method, in order to use the stylus on my laptop. I tried Weylus, and it is great for screen mirroring and casual clicks, but using the stylus (perhaps it’s my wifi’s fault) was way too laggy, almost unusable. Are there other tools, similar to this, that perhaps work with a usb cable or something like this? in order to speed things up. My tablet is very potato-ish, very slow at running apps and so, but once the apps are loaded they works fluently. both the laptop and the tablet runs KDE.
thanks in advance!
Remote input in KDEconnect, maybe.
KDE Connect? (It’s not KDE exclusive)
Synergy https://github.com/symless
share keyboard video and mouse across computers, they have android and ios
its a paid open source model…
Video?
maybe Synergy or KDE Connect
I can use KDE connect it to send mouse click event, but the stylus and the touchscreen doesn’t seem to be supported. Am I missing something?
I second KDE Connect, especially if you’re already invested in the KDE ecosystem.
I have it on my phone and it allows me to do remote access, in addition to using the device as an input. It also does handoff stuff like letting you answer your texts on your desktop, and I find that feature set works more consistently than Your Phone by MS.
I already use it on my android smartphone, but here I need something to share touchscreen and stylus between two linux devices
XMouse is what I use.
you can use netevent. it will expose your tablet input directly to your host computer by uinput
replying to @jet@hackertalks.com as the direct reply is stuck in a loading loop:
in the website it’s written
keyboard, mouse, or trackpad
but no words about touchscreen and stylus. Is it supported?
What do you mean by touchscreen and stylus? Do you want to transfer pressure data? Do you want to see the screen of the pc on the tablet?
