Geoffrey McRae 9e9bf6b88c [idd] lgmp: use precise clipboard polling
Drive adaptive clipboard stream polling with a high-resolution waitable
timer instead of rounding microsecond delays into coarse wait-function
timeouts.

Preserve the explicit stop and local wake events while avoiding a clock-tick
stall at each file-transfer window.

Looking Glass

Looking Glass lets you use a Windows virtual machine from Linux with very low display and input latency. The current recommended setup uses the Looking Glass Indirect Display Driver (IDD) in the Windows guest and the Looking Glass Client on the Linux host.

Start here

The Linux client is currently distributed as source code and must be built before it can be installed. The end-user guide covers the complete process:

  1. Build the Linux client.
  2. Configure shared memory for the virtual machine.
  3. Install the Looking Glass IDD in Windows.
  4. Install and run the client.

See the Looking Glass documentation for the current requirements and setup guide.

Source archives

IMPORTANT

This project contains submodules that must be checked out if building from the git repository! If you are not a developer and just want to compile Looking Glass, please download the source archive from the website instead:

Source code for the documentation can be found in the doc directory.

You may view this locally as HTML by running make html with python3-sphinx and python3-sphinx-rtd-theme installed.
