Notes

This application allows you to use one mouse and or keyboard across several computers.

You can buy a copy at symless.com

There is one in the repo but usually old and not wtih the advanced features.

I bought one years ago and love it.

For some reason the "Configure Server" dead corners feature does not work.

You need to Save a config(any) in a location. /home/user/.synergy is a great place.

Then manually edit the file.

Take your time to read the file. It is actually very well written.
