dpkg -l

dpkg -l lists all the installed programs on a Debian apt based system.  There are too many to list all and many are built in system commands.

Below are some that I highlight for interest and future reference to easily find on reinstall.</description>

PiKVM

I purchased a PiKVM kit in 2021, and got it operational at that time.  I did not need to use it until recently, 2024-09. Basically a special &#039;hat&#039; is mounted on a standard Raspberry Pi 4, the smallest memory unit type being sufficient (2 GB).  The kit was complete with all the required parts, such as the hat, Raspberry PI, a case, small OLED display and various cables.  The PiKVM is V3 HAT with RPi V4 2GB.</description>
