I'm having a problem figuring out how to configure synergy to behave on a system with multiple X windows.
On my desktop I am running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. I have two monitors, setup as separate X screens by preference as well as to enable me to rotate the left-hand monitor.
I also have a laptop, which I have on the desk in front of me, lower than the other two monitors. I have a very simple synergy.conf:
section: screens
desktop:
laptop.local:
end
section: links
desktop:
down = laptop
laptop:
up = desktop
end
It works, but on the desktop only on whichever screen I run synergys
from in terminal (I haven't set it up to run at startup yet because I've been playing with the configuration).
I can't find any information how to reference multiple screens on one system, and would appreciate any help.
