Synergy lets you share a mouse and keyboard between several computers over a network.

http://synergy-foss.org/

=Usage=

*You must know hostname of your N900, it might be Nokia-N900. You can check it on terminal
Code:

hostname

*Install synergy to your computer (or any another device)

*On computer:
create/modify file ~/.synergy.conf (or /etc/synergy.conf)

section: screens
pc:
Nokia-N900:
end

section: links
pc:
right = Nokia-N900
Nokia-N900:
left = pc
end

section: options
screenSaverSync = false
# My KVM uses Scroll Lock to switch screens, so set the
# hotkey to lock the cursor to the screen to something else
keystroke(f12) = lockCursorToScreen(toggle)
end

On PC, start server

synergys -f

(-f means you will see what is happening, you can omit it when it works)

On phone, start client

synergyc SERVER_HOST_NAME

or

synergyc SERVER_IP

To shut it down
killall synergyc

=Issues / good to know=
*Moving mouse will not wake the screen when dimmed (as tapping touch screen doesn't wake it)
*Data is transmitter over network (and could be slow)
*Synergy client uses CPU (and battery) even focus is not on the phone, do not let it running when not used.
(issues on upstream, e.g. http://synergy-foss.org/tracker/issues/2935)
