"rebooting" is not a thing ova here. yeah, you can accomplish that but that's not what you want. utilising something like InputRemapper + e.g. Plasma shortcuts, you can launch a big-picture UI, like steam or plama-bigscreen when it's ready or somesuch, when you press a key combo on the controller or mouse or keyboard or any combination thereof.
Yeah I suppose rebooting is the incorrect path or word. I am looking to closely mirror the current setup of smart tv, console, streaming box etc. all on one machine.
The keyboard is unlikely to be used by anyone other than me, I am to do some research on an appropriate tv style remote to select apps and use within apps.
