Very cool app...well once I get it working.

I'm running 3.6 on my G5 with Synergy...my "server" is my laptop running Debian with Synergy 1.5.

When I jump to the G5 and start typing, the key map is all wrong. None of the letters pressed are correct. Anyone have a fix?

I also wondered (though I didn't test yet) how the keyboards behave, because in the advanced settings there is a server keyboard mapping only for windows or mac os US!

So how would this behave if I have a windos machine (acting as the server) with swiss french keyboard and also the morphos machine with the same mapping?

Sorry but Linux servers are not currently supported. As Chris already pointed out, you can either pick a Windows or OS X server. If you are willing to help, I can build a debug version of the client and let you test and fill out all the necessary structures yourself - I'd assume it'd be about 4 hours of work, given you have minimal understanding of C code structure and MorphOS keymaps.

As for Swiss mapping - I have only tried German and Polish keyboards and they both worked, so I could guess the Swiss one will work as well.

Sadly, Synergy as well as VNC have no proper way of translating keyboard input.

I dont know anything about MorphOS keymaps..but I'm willing to give this a shot in my spare time.

I was wondering is there anyway to open the client and connect automatically when Morphos starts.

I tried the auto-connect thing and put it in startup folder. Everytime I restart the ip adresse has to be inputted.

Btw loving this software so far :)

...still waiting on giving it a shot myself to map Linux structures...

Not a Windows or OSX user so that doesnt help me at all.

Quit the app once you've configured it and it'll store the settings. I will fix this for 3.8.

*Someone* offered a bounty for Linux support so I put that on hold for a while...

I think I know who suggested the bounty and I would gladly contribute to it :)
Maybe we could use a common bounty portal?

Well..its a very handy utility..so if I need to I'll use my friend's Paypal account to contribute. Update this thread with a link if you decide to remove it off of hold.

Worked out the auto-start connection to a server thing thanks to this conversation

you need to set
STARTPRI=127
TOOLPRI=127
DONOTWAIT
