While ShareMouse offers some extra features Synergy doesn’t have: Also, only Synergy has a logging feature. Both use a GUI and drag and drop, but Synergy requires you to enter the server IP. Both enable clipboard sharing for images, text and formatted text, but only Synergy supports the Linux operating system. ShareMouse and Synergy have similar capabilities, like working on Mac OS X and Windows computers and hotkey switching. I have to see if there is yet a bugreport against synergy about that.With ShareMouse, you sync actions between PCs, like locking or unlocking different PCs simultaneously, synchronise screen savers for various PCs and log in remotely after a cold restart. So beware when mixing synergy and Debian experimental. One of the biggest blockers is sun’s java implementation. There are also a few others which share this regression. One of the problems it still has is that it won’t work properly with the newest version of libX11 from Debian experimental. Good tip! I also have synergy in near daily use and am quite content with it.

Now start synergy on the “server” running “synergys -f –config ~/.nf” and start it on the client using “synergy -f $SERVER”. Assuming you want one screen named meilenschwein on the left, and another client named funkenzutzler on the ~ % cat. The setup is simple: just run ‘aptitude install synergy‘ on your Debian system(s) or grab the sources/binaries for the other platforms. It really rocks, especially as it works for Linux/Unix as well as for Windows and Mac OS. It’s intended for users with multiple computers on their desk since each system uses its own monitor(s). Synergy lets you easily share a single mouse and keyboard between multiple computers with different operating systems, each with its own display, without special hardware.
