Yeah, running KDE Neon Wayland and I think i didn’t have any issues. Well, other than the Surface not feeding enough power to be fully lit, so it was in a bit dimmed/power saving mode.

I have a touchless one. About 40 bucks in Taobao a couple years ago. It has mini HDMI input, or a USB C video in. There’s a second USB C labeled only for power. You can use the USBC to both send image and power, but seems it doesn’t take a lot of it this way, and its brightness is a bit dimmed, as if in power saving mode. Better to feed it with the additional usbc cable too. Image quality (1080p@60Hz) is decent but nothing special.
It includes some hidden speakers that, to my surprise, get rather loud without much distortion for how thin this thing is. There’s a wheel/button thingy that you use to control brightness, sharpness, volume and other settings.
Useful as second monitor for work when traveling with the laptop. Or for the steam deck. Or to have a desktop running from your phone.
Anywhere I can see the sketch/gag of this?
Thanks. This worked perfectly!
Remmina…as a remote DE server? I thought it was a client only.
…Thanks. I found their wiki. The flashing instructions were not in the github page, and I have the ‘full’ model, so the SD card is not exposed. I guess I’ll try to do it with the reset button. Is the github repo now fully open sourced? Or do I need to install a different image in order to be the complete FOSS version?
Thanks!
“full debian install”…not sure I’d call it that. Seems apt repo is missing any chances of adding DE related packages. So maybe not full blown debian. It might have a limited repo.
I’d like to be able to test installing a full DE, but I made the mistake of getting only the 128GB model and so now I have always free storage issues 😅
Thanks! That’s a bit more helpful. Is there a guide explaining each part and how to install these?
I’m…not sure your link works correctly. It just takes me to the main page just like https://github.com/sipeed/NanoKVM.
I’d just install another OS to begin with. But again, I’d reaaally like it to be GrapheneOS. And then again, Pixels also come with all that crap (and much more) enabled by default.
Google TV forces its own launcher on top after every goddamn update. They’re becoming really obnoxious.
Without having tried it, I know it has an Android TV version. I’m not sure what part isn’t user-friendly, as usually that part comes from deciding to go away without most of google oriented services. I installed FLauncher before, and it did its job quite nicely, but haven’t tried LOS, or how it would perform in a TV. For my very specific use case, I need Flauncher to open either Jellyfin or Smarttube. For these purposes the Nvidia could work. But I havent gottent into it yet, and I’m still waiting for better options.
LineageOS.
Sorry… I meant from the perspective that you could/should install LOS on it. I think that’s about the only device allowing it, these days.
Nothing to add, but also interested in this same scenario. I could only think of the Nvidia Shield.
They have no work left to be done.
Thanks! I had exactly zero knowledge of any of those communities. I’ve just subscribed to all of them.
Thanks a lot! Just like before, I have these two questions:
-Do I need a pair? Or only one can be enough connected to the router, and then I can connect normal wifi clients (phones, laptops, an AP maybe) on the smaller shed?
-Can these be managed completely offline?
Just to confirm again - Yes, it works with a single cable both for power and video. But seems it doesn’t get all the power is wants, and it works on a slightly dimmed mode.
