[Bug 297652] Re: synergy server disables mouse interaction on host

[Chris Lee]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: synergy
  
  Synergy worked for me beautifully in Hoary, but after upgrading to
  Intrepid, it has a serious problem.  If synergy server is running on my
  intrepid machine, and I move my mouse off the desktop to the next
  machine (a windows box running synergy client) and then I move my mouse
  back to the intrepid desktop, mouse clicks no longer work on the local
  intrepid X server.  I can move the mouse pointer around, but clicking
  the buttons do not do anything.  I can use alt-tab to switch between
  windows and still use the keyboard to do things.  To regain use of the
  mouse, I have to log out (using alt-f1 and keyboard), and then log in
  again.
  
  In case it matters, I've been running Compiz and Xinerama on the synergy
  host (Intrepid machine) and an Nvidia closed-source server.  This was
  also the case when I ran synergy successfully in Hoary.
  
  The mouse works properly on the synergy client machine.
  
  Package: synergy
  Version: 1.3.1-4ubuntu2
+ 
+ Another note: Killing synergy server does not restore use of the mouse.
