Also Dr Don - two cool bits you didn’t mention in this (but which you actually came up with earlier) : - plugging a physical KVM switch into it and wiring that up so you can trigger the switching button from device to device; this would let you plug multiple systems into this configuration and switch between them with a command that switches over the physical connections. So if you have, say, several servers to maintain remotely - all done with one connection - Using a VGA > HDMI converter (about $5-15) to allow this solution to work with older gear, servers, etc. This has been tested by people (in their forums) and apparently works well. Combine this with the switcher and bingo, you can control remotely a cluster of systems; awesome for unattended support. Not just the advantage of more up-to-date software and infrastructure - this can also potentially bet set up and you could instruct a remote user to plug it into a box (so you can do a build, etc.). I reckon this could mean the difference between doing the job remotely and a 4 hour drive each way because of a BIOS screen. It's really hard to over-state how awesome this thing is eh.

My thoughts exactly! Some clients require a long drive to get there. Traffic can be a nightmare. Having one of these devices "layin around" can save tons of time.
@davocc24053 жыл бұрын
@Michael Anthony you can wire that up too by wiring the jumper pins on the board to a relay, I've seen that done before (in that case someone made an IR remote to power their PC on and off). In this case I'd probably be relying on BIOS config for wake-on-keyboard input but if the site were, say, unattended - it'd be a definite option. I'd probably also set up a PXE boot config if possible to allow diagnostics utilities to be bootable for each system (e.g. disk diagnostics sweeps, memtest86, etc.).

Cool, as a cheapo KVM for my lab (Dell Optiplex 990 on steroids) I was using a Raspberry Pi but taking advantage of the vPro AMT KVM over IP and Manageability Commander/Mesh Commander, but the method only worked for vPro Intel chips by enabling the AMT setup. Still, if you have a vPro Intel processor, you can setup a KVM almost for free, you just need any other computer on the network, even a pi zero. Really like this approach you are posting though, no need for vPro!

They sell this great little device that separates out the power and keyboard from the usb c connector so that you don't have to use tape. I think this ones software looks a little more refined, but tinypilot will install on the standard raspberry pi OS. I'm definitely going to check this one out though. Thanks for the heads up!

Plus power source, of course. No other hardware or wiring is needed, right? (I want to control Macs so the motherboard and power connections don't mean anything to me)

XWindow has been network transparent from day one. Back in the 80's. It's commonly called a thin-client. Or a remote XWindow client. I set up a thin-client on a 386 PC for my daughter to log into my Dual PII computer back in the late 90's. Only Windows waited until the new millennium to allow remote desktop. But they only allowed one desktop. So if someone connected to your computer with remote desktop, they were driving the same desktop you saw. UNIX and Linux actually had true multi-user login from the beginning.

I got my Pi-KVM to work, including the OTG, by using only the following parts: - Raspberry Pi 4B 2GB - USB-C to USB-A cable (uses the computer connected via USB-A to control/view connected to Pi USB-C to power it) $5 for a 3-pack on Amazon - HDMI-to-CSI-2 bridge $34.99 on Amazon - HDMI to HDMI cable (from my box of cables) or VGA-to-HDMI ($10.99 on Amazon) - SD Card (SanDisk 128GB that I already had) -- for the Pi-KVM image and ISO images to mount to server It only cost me $40 in additional parts to get the basic functionality working. The VGA-to-HDMI adapter is for VGA output only, which majority of servers/systems utilize. I fully tested both VGA-to-HDMI and HDMI-to-HDMI and they work as expected. Now, I have my own KVM over IP console working, I can move the systems into a data closet or attic and can remotely manage them. All my systems can be remotely powered on via Wake-on-LAN, so no need to be physically in front of the system in order to perform maintenance. Next project is to get a EzCoo 4 port HDMI switch $75 on Amazon and connect the Pi to that (make sure it gets power via the same USB-A to USB-C cable). That is still less than $200 in parts to include the Pi for a 4-port KVM over IP and works using web interface thanks to PiKVM project.
