Installation

Debian (Ubuntu)

.deb package

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install x11vnc qtbase5-dev
wget https://github.com/kbumsik/VirtScreen/releases/download/0.2.0/virtscreen_0.2.0-1_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i virtscreen_0.2.0-1_all.deb 
rm virtscreen_0.2.0-1_all.deb

Arch Linux (AUR)

There is virtscreen AUR package available. Though there are many ways to install the AUR package, one of the easiest way is to use aurman AUR helper:

aurman -S virtscreen

Python pip

If your distro is none of above, you may install it using pip. In this case, you need to install the dependancies manually.

You need x11vnc, xrandr, and PyQt5 libraries. To install (e.g. on Ubuntu):

sudo apt-get install x11vnc qtbase5-dev  # On Debian/Ubuntu, xrandr is included.

After you install the dependancies then run:

sudo pip install virtscreen
