Using another computer monitor
by Drosera_capensis from LinuxQuestions.org on (#55BGS)
Hello everyone,
I am working on a laptop with Ubuntu 19.04 installed.
I have an older computer running with Xubuntu 4.15.
I wish to use the Xubuntu screen as monitor for the Ubuntu computer.
I have tried to link the devices with VGA cable, but found out it could only take input and not output.
I have tried to share screen with xhost, but can't make it work.
Would anyone have a good tutorial, a reference documentation, or a tool to use a computer screen as a monitor?
Thanks for the help!
