If i log in and out or if I restart my computer, Synergy always disappears. I was using the PC a few days ago, got synergy installed and running, and then I rebooted. Synergy didn't start up and I could find it in Applications or recent or even by searching the dash.
When I tried to install it using Ubuntu software center, it shows already installed. So I removed it, reinstalled it and it started working again. At this point I also set it to load on Startup through Synergy settings and also by clicking the gear in the top right and Startup Applications...
I rebooted again and it's gone again. It's also missing from Startup applications and also from the dash search. I still see in /usr/bin/ synergyc, synergyd, and synergys but none of them run if I double click them (or right-click-> Open).
Can someone please help me with this?
ps -ef|grep synergy
show any output? Also: in the comments of synergy someone says: "But a word of warning: You may find it crashing at weird times, such as when you press the shift key, as in this bug report: bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/synergy/+bug/992451 If that happens to you, go to the synergy webpage and download version 1.4.9+. The version in the repository here is out of date--1.3.8--and updating should fix your issue." Might be worth a try.
