Add VNC Support? #113

Open rbreaves opened 3 years ago

I am not sure how best one would go about this. Currently I get an error that states that the /dev/uinput device does not exist, so I assume some other device would need to be hooked into and supported.

To add on to this xkeysnail does not appear to work with xrdp or x11vnc and I assume tigervnc fails as well. Any advice would be appreciated.

Related https://github.com/mooz/xkeysnail/issues/75/. Appears that this is due to the virtual nature of the device(s). We're already creating one virtual device - but his is like twice over now, so that is likely a good bit of why it is hard to fix it.

There ought to still be a way but will likely require some type of program to help intercept against xinput devices and xrdpkeyboard drivers.
