Let's say you have 2 computers:
cpu1: 10.0.0.1 cpu2: 10.0.0.2
Let's say cpu1's screen is left to cpu2's screen.
Let's say you want to control cpu1 from cpu2.
Let's assume both computers have the same username.
- install x2x on cpu1
- enter on cpu2
ssh -X user@cpu1 'x2x -west -to :0'
and leave terminal open.
And that's it!
