Synergy on mac and desktop
Latest recipe from Jake Anderson.
Jake has gotten synergy successfully between macbook and linux desktop.
Running version 1.3.8 on both. Had to download and compile
the source for the desktop. Then run the server there using the command
synergys --no-xinitthreads ...
On macbook use the following command
synergyc -1 --name macbook121435.dhcp.fnal.gov lpcdt063.fnal.gov
Need to tweak it appropriately.
Cannot get the clipboard to transfer between the machines.
