From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I've gone the x11vnc on a dummy display route, but found the setup's too much ceremony to want to use with any consistency.
Deskdock + barrier/synergy is slightly more ergonomic -- your laptop mouse and keyboard redirect to control android when you move the mouse out of the laptops screen and onto the tablet, but both displays are showing their native OS.
It's entirely tangential (not for android, not just a screen), but arcan does some cool stuff in this space. Here's a video of "sever tunneling" https://youtu.be/jIFjzN7dk10?t=107 (fancy x11 forwarding; It looks fascinating, but I've never gotten it setup).
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
