katezebrose Posted June 19, 2017 Author Share Posted June 19, 2017 Paul, I already told you. It is the version included in debian. Is there a way to check the version? Is there another way to do the installation? Maybe I should start over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Suarez Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 That might be better. Go to https://symless.com/account and log-in your account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katezebrose Posted June 19, 2017 Author Share Posted June 19, 2017 Here is what has mostly worked for me... sudo apt-get remove synergy (the version packaged with jessie is old and doesn't work) I downloaded synergy-v1.8.8-stable-25a8cb2-Linux-x86_64.deb from https://symless.com/synergy/downloads sudo dpkg -i ~/Downloads/synergy-v1.8.8-stable-25a8cb2-Linux-x86_64.deb sudo apt-get install -f sudo apt-get install libavahi-compat-libdnssd1_0.6.31-5_amd64.deb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avi Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Hi, I've purchaed the basic package and installed the server portion on Win10. I then download ver1.8 8 for Debian to be installed on a raspberry pi and I'm not able to install it for some reason. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avi Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 I've tried to install both synergy-v1.8.8-stable-25a8cb2-Linux-x86_64.deb and synergy-v1.8.8-stable-25a8cb2-Linux-i686.deb both with results of: "Errors were encountered while processing: <filename> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katezebrose Posted June 21, 2017 Author Share Posted June 21, 2017 You may not be able to use the '.deb' files on rasberry-pi. You may need to compile your own executable. I have not done this myself, but there are instructions on the below link. https://learn.adafruit.com/synergy-on-raspberry-pi/compiling-synergy-for-raspbian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avi Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 ok, thank you. I've followed the instructions almost 100% as the file that was avaiable was a bit newere and unzipped: synergy-v1.8.8-stable-25a8cb2-Source.tar.gz However, when I run this line: sudo unzip ./tools/cryptopp562.zip -d ./tools/cryptopp562 I get this results "unzip: can not find or open ./tools/cryptopp562.zip I've done a search for the file or for the tools directory. Either one is them is found.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katezebrose Posted June 21, 2017 Author Share Posted June 21, 2017 It looks like version 1.4.15 had a bug compiling for rasberrypi that was addressed in versions 1.4.17. I say that looking at the ChangeLog file description of Bug #3939. Bug #3939 - Compile fails on ARM (Raspberry Pi) because of cryptopp/Crypto++ lib You can probably skip that step.

Avi Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 I must admit I'm a bit confused. There are many instructions some of incomplete some are not relevant to my setting. I have a windows 10 machine and a Raspberry pi 3b using the Debian OS. I'm trying to make the Windows10 my server and my RP my client. Is there a defined file to download, clear instructions for installation and setup? If there are can you please point me in a single direction where I can retrieve this documentation and following up (knowing that they have been tested before).
