rkvm is a software KVM (keyboard, video and mouse) switch - minus the video. From the README:

rkvm is a tool for sharing keyboard and mouse across multiple Linux machines. It is based on a client/server architecture, where server is the machine controlling mouse and keyboard and relays events (mouse move, key presses, ...) to clients.

In this episode I discuss the steps I took to install and compile rkvm, my experiences running it, and what led me to this software in the first place.
