keyboardless
One keyboard less to bother with. This is just what I
was looking for. Im running one PII and one 486 as a
dronecomputer with Xfree and X-Chat, this piece of
software makes it all possible.
I have discovered one thing though. DPMS in Xfree
seems to respond to what is sent on the physical
port. So once DPMS enables the savemode or default
screensaver I wont be able to clear it through
Xremote.
