Just today I received my new LG 49WL95C-W and has been trying without any luck to set it up the way I want, which is:

  • MacBook Pro is connected through USB-C for display/charging.
  • Linux Box is connected through DP.
  • Keyboard and mouse are connected to the available ports on the monitor.
  • Linux box is connected through (???) for mouse/keyboard control?
  • I can control both machines and somehow switch the main source (can be either entirely Linux, or entirely Mac).

I could also do a side-by-side style advertised by LG in addition to my main setup. However, I don't want to install any of their software. I'm not sure I will be able to achieve any of that given the monitor only has 1 upstream USB port, which is USB-C.

P.S. I saw the review of 49" Dell monitor that uses the same panel, and from that review it seems trivial to jump between two different machines. I guess this is not the case here?

Thanks!
