Hello everyone,
I have just started using Synergy and while I really like what I'm seeing so far, I'm also running into a couple of problems.
My current configuration: server is Ubuntu x86, client is Win 7 laptop.
1) If either the server or client is set on the "Service" process mode, it will be stuck on "Synergy is starting," with no further information. The log only spits this out:
NOTE: command: /usr/bin/synergys -f --no-tray --debug DEBUG2 --name Russ-LabMachine --crypto-mode gcm --crypto-pass 2e50b9409378bcf68fc9a22ab8e877a1 --ipc -c /tmp/qt_temp.i20867 --address :24800
NOTE: config file: /tmp/qt_temp.T20867
NOTE: log level: DEBUG2
And it just gets stuck there. It's essentially the same for the Windows version.
A quick search on the Internet shows that there is a workaround: change process mode to legacy. Everything works fine, then, until...
2) If I have a window in the Windows computer open with elevated (administrator) privileges, I find that it will not accept any input from the server computer. I also notice that the Elevate checkbox on the Synergy client is greyed out when I switch the process mode to legacy. Since I can't use the service mode, I can't think of a way to be able to use Synergy with elevated programs in the Windows client.
Is there a solution for either of these?
Thanks, all!
