Showing my age here. Back in the early 1990's I was into OS/2 and
bought a turn-based video game "Galactic Civilizations for OS/2". The
successor to OS/2 (ArcaOS) is backwards compatable to ye olde OS/2. I
now run the game in an ArcaOS VM under QEMU. My current 12-gig (YES:
TWELVE) desktop will occasionally crash (once a month) whilst "Youtube
bingeing". There's a lot of work involved "per year" in GalCiv, and I
get very annoyed at having to re-do it after a crash part way through a
"year".

Currently, I run the VM on my hot backup 32-gig "successor machine".
I don't want to dump the older machine, because it works for almost
everything else.

The other machine is in another room, so I have to walk over there to
play the game. I need a client that can connect to the other machine,
take over the X session, and provide keyboard and mouse input and mirror
the other machine's screen. Importantly, my main machine crashing must
not affect the other machine.
