Damn I have to consider those. Using the terminal with the screen keyboard is pain due to missing keys
SSH
Most terminal needs I do through SSH.
I know, and I do the same. But its annoying still, I want to do everything on the local machine
I use barrier when I need a keyboard in desktop mode. It works well. I just need to remember to turn off the server afterwards, or my desktop can't fold !
that's the biggest war crime that valve has committed with the deck and no idea how they think it's acceptable
In case you didn’t know, you can install a different onscreen keyboard from Discovery. It’d be nice if the default keyboard didn’t lack those fundamental features, though.
