Synergy server: windows XP , 1.3.6 version Synergy Client : Linux with 1.3.7 version

When my mouse control is on client and when I am working on client, the control comes back to server machine unintentionally. I need to take back the control to client again. It is very annoying particularly when I am typing something on client and the control is unintentionally on server window.

Following messages are seen when the control got shifted to server

Does it work the other way round (i. e. running synergy client on Windows XP)?

I'm asking because I had the same issue between a (Windows XP) notebook and a Windows XP Intel quadcore desktop. The notebook was/is perfectly working as synergy client or server. The desktop wasn't working as synergy server, only as synergy client.

Ping roundtrip times from notebook to desktop were normal, <= 1 ms. Pinging from desktop to notebook showed increasing values, both positive and negative, e. g. +/- 20 ms.

Solution was editing Windows XP desktop's C:boot.ini file: [operating systems] multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /your_1st_arg /your_Nth_arg /usepmtimer
