deskconn is a daemon for the Linux desktop that allows remote control of some of the features of a Linux desktop.

That includes Screen locking, screen brightness control (on laptops), mouse cursor and keyboard input from a mobile phone (over WAMP proto using Crossbar).

All the above features are covered by either x11 or desktop interfaces except for brightness control, which requires display-control and was conceived by conversation here (thanks Jamie).

It would make deskconn seamless for users installing it, so please allow that interface to auto-connect with it.

Wow, sounds neat and frightening :wink:

+1 to auto-connect. This is very clearly within the expected functionality of the application and the snapd interface doesn’t expose any extra accesses that make it worrisome for this snap.
