# magic4linux

A snoopdesigns's fork of [mafredi/magic4linux](https://github.com/mafredri/magic4linux).

Allows you to use the magic remote on your webOS LG TV as a keyboard/mouse for your ~~PC~~ Linux machine.

This is a Linux implementation of the [Wouterdek/magic4pc](https://github.com/Wouterdek/magic4pc) client.

A virtual keyboard and mouse is created via the `/dev/uinput` interface, as provided by the [bendahl/uinput](https://github.com/bendahl/uinput) library. For non-root usage, please add udev rules as instructed in the [`uinput`](https://github.com/bendahl/uinput#uinput-----) documentation.
