[TriLUG] Synergy (virtual KVM)

[Michael Thompson]

I have.  Its nice, very simple to configure, and works well under
Linux.  The Windows version also works, but seems to have a few issues. 
If you are controlling the 'client' pc and the connection is cut, then
it does not seem to recover well (IIRC).  This may be an issue for Linux
as well, but I have not run in to it.  I use it at home with 2 pc's
sitting side by side.  Its like running a dual monitor system.  Cut and
paste also work between the two machines, which comes in handy if I use
one machine to look up reference materials (perl lately) and would like
to copy and paste code.  I would be curious to see how it works between
a Windows and Linux machine...
