Problem with Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 8000

[mjkalba]

I don't know if something changed with the latest update to Windows 10 Creators Update
(Build 15063.rs2_release.170317-1834), but synergy no longer seems to be
passing my mouse identification through to the client systems.

I have a Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 8000, with additional (left and
right side) buttons. I am no longer able to use these on the client systems.

I am running Synergy 1.88-stable.c30301e

Hi mjkalba. Please provide us more details about your client and server machines.

I have 3 systems currently active, all running the same version of WIndows and Synergy as specified above. What specific details would you like to know?

[Paul Suarez]

Hi mjkalba. Please set your Synergy to Debug1 and send us a copy of the logs.

Server log file - synlog.txt

Client log file - synlog2.txt.txt

Looking in the server log file, if I press either of the 2 additional side buttons, they both produce:

[2017-05-05T15:46:36] DEBUG1: event: button press button=0
[2017-05-05T15:46:36] DEBUG1: event: button release button=0

 

THe normal left and right buttons have values of 1 and 3

Hi mjkalba. I have found an existing open issue on Github about this. I have added all of the details of your setup to help speed up the process. You can click this to view it.

Curiously it seems to have started working again. I am not aware of doing anything. Just lucky, I guess.
