[closed] Dual screen setup, Ubuntu + Win7 problems

Hello,

I have the following setup:

         Host                 Client
*---------- *---------      -----------
| Screen1 | | Screen0| <--> | Screen0 |
----------- ----------      -----------

The host is Ubuntu 11.10 with Gnome Shell (the '*' above denotes the hot corners), the Client is Windows XP. This works great (even Ctrl+Alt+Del works on the client). Now if you replace Windows XP with Windows 7 it no longer works well:

• The mouse sometimes goes from the host to the client but it disappears once in the client, I "feel" it is there (since it seams to travel the same distance it went in to go out).
• When Windows 7 authorization dialogs pose problems
• Other stuff happens, I'm at home now so I don't remember, but in all it makes it unusable

I tried setting up the Ubuntu machine to be the client and Windows 7 the server, this worked better (the mouse had no trouble moving from one screen to the other) but now a bunch of my keys don't work (like the delete key...) and one other annoying thing is that Gnome Shell has hot corners (top left, '*' in my drawing above) and now the hot corner on screen0 no longer "resists" the mouse (allowing you to quickly move the mouse there to activate the corner), now it just jumps to the 2nd monitor (screen1) making that hot corner useless. I tried the dead corner option but it doesn't work, I assume this is meant for 1 screen setups.

Has anyone gotten this to work with Windows 7? I'm using 1.4.5 (beta) on both, screen0 is the main screen.

Thank you, Gabriel
