Bug#329794: vino: Would be nice to be able to share a keyboad like x2x and x2vnc

[John M Cooper]

Package: vino
Version: 2.10.0-2
Severity: wishlist


It would be really nice if vino could also include some sort of keyboard
sharing so that you could do the same sort of thing done by x2x and
x2vnc.

Situation:

I have two computers, I enable "Allow remote keyboard" on the laptop.
Then on the desktop turn on "Enable remote keyboard to PC" select the
laptop from a list or manually enter it  and I can then use keyboad and
mouse across PC's.

Thanks

john
