Kernel Config

Hello,

I've been using PiKVM for remote control, just found GLKVM and I'm interested in low budget and the same performance.

Before I use it, I have one question: does GLKVM have the same structure of kernel? The reason is that I used to change the device name over shell command in PiKVM and curious about GLKVM has it or not.

For example, the most config change was made in /etc/kvmd/override.yaml
and device name change was done by: kvmd-edidconf --set-monitor-name= --set-mfc-id= --set-product-id= --set-serial= --apply

We provide modification through the WEB UI, which is more convenient than the command-line method.

But it's worth mentioning that many pikvm commands don't work on GLKVM, such as the edidconf you mentioned.

Is there any alternative to edidconf? Does GLKVM web ui support it?

UI support

Great!!! So that will replace the monitor name.

What about speaker name? /etc/kvmd/override.yaml is available on GLKVM as well?
Changing the speaker name on windows setting is not meaningful.

The answer is I don't know. In theory, all keyboard, mouse, and MIC devices should share the same name, which is GLKVM or Glinet by default (after version 1.4.0). Theoretically, the same name should be displayed here, but it doesn't appear that way on Windows, whereas it does on Ubuntu. I'm not sure whether it's a display error on Windows or if there's some other issue.

I'm recently purchased a GLKVM and added some config
in /etc/kvmd/override.yaml file
kvmd:
streamer:
max_fps: 5
bitrate: 1000

After that change, I cannot access to GLKVM web or terminal

Is there any way to fix it?

All modifications to /etc/kvmd/override.yaml must comply with the Yaml format.

You can use the kvmd -m command to see the specific indentation required for writing the configuration.

If you write incorrect configurations, the program will terminate during initialization due to a failure to read the configurations.

The format was correct.
kvmd:
streamer:
max_fps: 5
bitrate: 1000

Then I rebooted the GLKVM.

After that, I cannot access web ui or terminal. Just loading inifinitely

This editor doesn't allow the whitespace at the beginning of the line. The indentation was correct.

Please refer the screenshot

Your FPS configuration is incorrect, and COMET cannot be configured for FPS by this way.

kvmd:
    streamer:
        h264_bitrate:
            default: 2000
            max: 20000
            min: 25

I think so. But I can't access the ui, and it doesn't let me update the config.

You can SSH in to make changes. The username is root. Alternatively, hold down the button until the LED flashes blue rapidly, which will reset device.

SSH works. Thank you for your support.
