Remote Monitor Options?


I would like to have my system in a ventilated closet, but have my keyboard, mouse, and display on a desk in the living room. I know about wireless networking, and I know there are wireless keyboards and mice. But how do I get a VGA signal from the closet to a monitor without a wire? Any ideas?

Don't know about vga signal, but you can use vnc or X11 forwarding to use your computer remotedly (from other computer, though).

Which means I'd have to have a computer at both ends, which is what I was hoping to avoid. Hopefully there's a pure "wireless" VGA solution...
