WINXP / Ubuntu (linux) - Trying to set up Synergy

Hi, I've been having probs with setting up Synerhy with WINXP as the SERVER.

I'm looking at the logs & when I try & move my curser over the edge of the screen - These logs appear

(questions below)

2011-04-13T20:21:23 DEBUG2: find neighbor on right of "WINXP" ..\lib\server\CServer.cpp,611 2011-04-13T20:21:23 DEBUG2: ignored "LinuxPC" on right of "WINXP" ..\lib\server\CServer.cpp,640 2011-04-13T20:21:23 DEBUG2: no neighbor on right of "LinuxPC" ..\lib\server\CServer.cpp,626 2011-04-13T20:21:23 DEBUG1: try to leave "WINXP" on right ..\lib\server\CServer.cpp,808 2011-04-13T20:21:23 DEBUG1: no neighbor right ..\lib\server\CServer.cpp,814 2011-04-13T20:21:23 DEBUG2: find neighbor on right of "WINXP" ..\lib\server\CServer.cpp,611 2011-04-13T20:21:23 DEBUG2: ignored "LinuxPC" on right of "WINXP" ..\lib\server\CServer.cpp,640 2011-04-13T20:21:23 DEBUG2: no neighbor on right of "LinuxPC" ..\lib\server\CServer.cpp,626 2011-04-13T20:21:23 DEBUG1: try to leave "WINXP" on right ..\lib\server\CServer.cpp,808 2011-04-13T20:21:23 DEBUG1: no neighbor right ..\lib\server\CServer.cpp,814

QUESTION :- what do these numbers mean - 814 / 808 / 626 / 640 / 611 ?? & is there a website with all the synergy error codes ?

QUESTION :- Is there a "load & go" version for Ubuntu ? (I have quicksynergy.. ) - I can't find the logs as yet.. (KEYBOARD VERY SLOW / MOUSE SLOW too - very hard to control..)

Please format the log output appropriately, it's nearly impossible to read when it's all on the same line! – Malvineous Apr 14 '11 at 11:26

I believe the numbers are the line numbers within the source file specified.

QuickSynergy just calls the 'standard' synergy command line tools.

For Ubuntu you should be able to test synergy with:

$ synergyc -f -d 2 <ip of server>

That should start synergy client, connect to the server, and give you debugging information to stderr. You can use Ctrl+C to terminate the client.

To just start it in the background you can use:

$ synergyc <ip of server>

Cool - Using this - $ synergyc <ip of server> - on my Ubuntu machine, worked first time :) – Sarah Apr 15 '11 at 11:27
Is there a way i can have it load up automatically at start-up (before i log in ? ) – Sarah Apr 15 '11 at 11:28
If you need to log in to Ubuntu then you would need to add it to your /etc/gdm/Init/Default file so it runs when gdm does. You also need to add it to your startup programs in Ubuntu so it runs when your session starts. – Majenko Apr 15 '11 at 11:51
