hardware OS4   hardware OS4 : Amiga Synergy Client v2.0 Released
   posted by STRICQ on 14-Oct-2006 23:05:44 (4233 reads)
The Amiga Synergy client AmiSynergyc v2.0 has now been released on OS4Depot. Synergy is a client/server software system which allows one computer to share one keyboard and mouse with multiple clients. Each computer must have its own monitor, usually placed side-by-side.



Changes for 2.0:

o Almost completely re-written.
o Upgraded to use the current synergy protocol, v1.3
o All mouse and keyboard OS operations now work properly.
o Now a commodity.
o No need for a reset handler, the server can now detect when a client drops offline.
o Mouse pointer blanking is much more system friendly now. No longer loses the pointer image if you switch back to the Amiga mouse when the synergy mouse is offscreen.

AmiSynergyc v2.0 @ OS4Depot

Synergy Server @ sourceforge

Great to see that you're still coding away! :) Any hints for future projects?

Hey I got the client working, and it works well :) Very handy! But when I put it in my user-startup my machine hangs when booting...dunno why.

If I take it out and just run it from shell after OS4 is up, it's fine.

I'd just like to point out that contextmenus doesn't seem to work properly with synergy. You can right click and get the menu up, but you aren't able to select any options.

It might hang because your network is not fully up and running yet. i had this problem my self, and solved it by creating an script on the workbench, so when i clicked that, it started, you might also solve it by waiting for the network to initialize in startup-sequence, before starting synergy.

I use a Network-Startup script. Doing so does increase the to Workbench startup times.

What programs using a context menu are you referring to? I guess I don't use any programs with context menus on a regular basis so it didn't get tested.

Does the new version support transferring graphics in the clipboard? What about synching up screensavers? What parts of the Synergy system are still not supported in this version?

Graphics on the clipboard is not supported. Screensaver sync is not supported, though it should be possible now. Some of the internal options are not supported, but they are rarely used. If someone knows about them and wants to use them, you can ask for them to be implemented.
