Hello,

 Have installed synergy on two of my computers.  synergy-foss.org.  It does work, however, I can't seem to control my mouse on my client machine??  Just wanders over the screen.

 Any one out there have experience with this software?

My system:  windows 7-64bit is the server with 64bit synergy app.

My client:      ''           XP                client with 32  ''     ''         ''

  Thanks for help/suggestions.

Hey John - No personal experience with Synergy myself mate but I did some pretty in depth research for an article not long ago and the consensus is that Synergy is pretty buggy.

Your best bet might be to post this question on one of the Synergy Forums mate: here http://sourceforge.net/projects/synergy2/forums/forum/199580 or here http://synergy-foss.org/osqa/

Or perhaps give Mouse Without Borders a go: http://blogs.technet.com/b/next/archive/2011/09/09/microsoft-garage-download-mouse-without-borders.aspx

Mouse Without Borders is restricted to Windows machines only but it is reputedly easy to set up and works very well.

Cheers...Jim
