Can synergy share the display in addition to the mouse and keyboard?
No. Synergy is a KM solution not a KVM (keyboard, video, mouse) solution. However, future versions will probably support KVM. Hopefully, this will make synergy suitable for managing large numbers of headless servers. • Can synergy do drag and drop between computers? No. That’s a very cool idea and it’ll be explored. However, it’s also clearly difficult and may take a long time to implement. • Does AltGr/Mode-Switch/ISO_Level3_Shift work? Yes, as of 1.0.12 synergy has full support for AltGr/Mode-switch. That includes support for most (all?) European keyboard layouts. All systems should be using the same keyboard layout, though, for all characters to work. (Any character missing from a client’s layout cannot be generated by synergy.) There is experimental support for ISO_Level3_Shift in 1.1.3. • Why isn’t synergy ported to platform XYZ? Probably because the developers don’t have access to platform XYZ and/or are unfamiliar with development on XYZ. Also, synergy has inherently non-portabl
