From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Can also use Pi KVM to add a similar capability to non server grade hardware that doesn't have it. I did that for a workstation once.
Yup, I use PiKVM, too. Fun fact, PiKVM's first content commit is a clone of my DIY IPMI repo 😉
Look, it's'a me: https://github.com/pikvm/pikvm/commit/70eebd5c59da26dc3f6ad56730adbb616055f4e5#diff-b335630551682c19a781afebcf4d07bf978fb1f8ac04c6bf87428ed5106870f5R4
Awesome job!
Thanks! Yea, it was a really fun project to make back before there were any real options. And I'm glad the PiKVM team could expand upon it.
Somewhere along the way I lost the "based on" credit, likely whenever they fully modernized the stack. I wasn't really keeping track, but did find it humorous when LTT said the creator complained someone based another project on them. I was like "Hmmmmmmm..." but just laughed because I didn't make it for it to stagnate like it had been with me.
