avr-amiga-controller -------------------- This software will allow you to control an Amiga using your PC keyboard and mouse - without unplugging them from your PC. It works as follows: - You run one of the following Synergy/Barrier compatible servers on your PC: - Synergy - https://symless.com/synergy - Deskflow - https://github.com/deskflow/deskflow - Barrier - https://github.com/debauchee/barrier - Input Leap - https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap - You configure a hotkey to switch to screen "amiga". - The input from PC is redirected to the synergy-hw client (Find this in the hostapp directory.) - The firmware is flashed to an Atmega32U2 or Atmega32U4 board (such as Minimus 32 AVR or Pro Micro (with LUFA Bootloader - http://www.stanleylio.com/home/usblufa )) - synergy-hw streams input to the AVR. - The AVR emulates bus mouse and amiga keyboard signals (at hardware level) Of course, you also need to build correct cabling to connect the AVR to the Amiga keyboard and mouse ports. The mapping is like this Minimus Pro Micro Amiga (Bus Mouse) Mouse port PB4 PF4 H(XA) PB5 PF5 HQ(XB) PB6 PF6 V(YA) PB7 PF7 VQ(YB) PC4 PB4 LEFT MOUSE BUTTON PC5 PB5 RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON PC6 PB6 MIDDLE MOUSE BUTTON GND GND GND Minumus Pro Micro Amiga Keyboard Port PD0 PD0 CLOCK PD1 PD1 DATA GND GND GND To compile it, you need to get LUFA library and put the path in the firmware/Makefile. Then run make from top level to build both parts of the software. To flash the firmware to your board and to run synergy-hw you need to give your user permission on the AVR usb device. Put this in /etc/udev/rules.d/minimus.rules: SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ACTION=="add", ATTR{idVendor}=="03eb", ATTR{idProduct}=="*", GROUP="plugdev" SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ACTION=="add", ATTR{idVendor}=="f055", ATTR{idProduct}=="*", GROUP="plugdev" (First line is for the bootloader, for flashing. Second line is the device when running this firmware. Your user needs to be in group plugdev.) Make a synergy.conf like this: section: screens linux: amiga: end section: options keystroke(super+a) = lockCursorToScreen(on), switchToScreen(amiga) keystroke(super+z) = switchToScreen(linux), lockCursorToScreen(off) relativeMouseMoves = true end Launch synergys using this config: synergys -f -c synergy.conf -n linux Launch synergy-hw (no argument necessary, screen name and server address are hardcoded) Press windows-a to flip to Amiga Press windows-z to return to PC. While controlling Amiga, pressing Ctrl+Super+Super will reboot the Amiga.
