I've got a simple xserver setup:Ubuntu workstation running xserver, to which a remote Beaglebone computer running linuxcnc is connecting.So I'm using the mouse, keyboard and screen of the workstation to control the linuxcnc application.The machines are physically standing next to eachother, but I find that the controls of linuxcnc are a bit laggy...Therefore, I wonder if it is possible to attach a mouse and keyboard to the Beaglebone directly, and only use the screen of the workstation to display the application.It would look like this (adapted from the basic schema on Wikipedia):I didn't find any description of this, so I guess it's not possible? I don't know really how xserver internals work, but I can imagine that the mouse needs information about the screen to send relative position events... For the keyboard I can't imagine what the problem could be, somehow I should be able to forward the keystrokes from the remote keyboard to the application, no?
