[lug] Exporting display to android

[Ben Burdette]

You might take a look at gmote.  It allows you to use your android phone 
as a mousepad and keyboard for remote control.  It doesn't do display, 
but if you can get a non-touchscreen monitor then you'd be set.

gmote is dual purpose - it also is for remote control on VLC.  Last time 
I tried it this aspect didn't work so well as the vlc lib had changed.  
Trying to use the VLC features will crash the server and you'll have to 
restart it.
