Steps to reproduce:

Here are the steps:

  1. Wait for screensaver to start on the client
  2. Move mouse to client (cursor leaves server screen ok)
  3. See that screen saver doesn't disappear
  4. Go to login screen using a mouse physically connected to the client
  5. Try to move the cursor to client
  6. Then the server says client dead.
  7. Force restart the client

Client log:

INFO: service command updated
WARNING: shutdown timed out after 20 secs, forcefully terminating
ERROR: got token 648, duplicating
INFO: starting new process
INFO: Synergy 1.4.10 Client on Microsoft Windows XP x86
NOTE: started client

BTW, when the screen is locked intentionally, everything seems to be working fine.

Versions and operating systems:

INFO: Synergy 1.4.10 Client on Microsoft Windows XP x86

Temporary workarounds:

None. That's what I'm looking for.

Additional comments:

Can you please help to fix this at pri. This is making synergy un-usable for me.

One more thing I've observed recently. If I remove the screensaver on client machine by touch the mouse, everything seems to work fine. I can move the cursor to the client screen press ctrl+del+break/pause and I'm able to login. Hope this helps to nail down the issue.
