Do you want to use the same keyboard & mouse across all the computers on your desk?
Barrier is the open source software KVM (Keyboard Video Mouse) solution that will enable you to use a keyboard & mouse connected to one computer across any other computer by simply moving your mouse pointer out of one screen & onto another screen. It even takes the clipboard with it to other computers, & other operating systems.
1. Install Barrier on the computer that has the keyboard and mouse, and set that computer as the "server".
2. Install & set up Barrier on any other devices that you want to access. Point those devices to your Barrier "server" IP address.
On Ubuntu based distros such as Ubuntu & Mint you can find Barrier in the Software Center, or type:
`sudo apt install barrier`
For other operating systems it's not so easy, and it's a real pain on MacOS. You have to go to the Barrier GitHub home page and and grab the version that works for that 👇 OS.
