David Harrison Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Well, paid my money and downloaded. Win10 version good enough as far as it goes which isn't far. Can't say I'm at all keen on a network-based app that provides no visible way to check/edit its configuration. Now, onto the Linux client. The old version ran perfectly under Mint 17.3. Which is as far as I go with Mint versions "because systemd". The new version seems to rely on just about every new dependency under the sun, so it won't install. Great. Faceless Windows app and uninstallable Linux app, $15 down, time needing to be wasted reverting to an older version, and realising that Synergy's future excludes me. What a shame.

David Harrison Posted September 26, 2017 Author Share Posted September 26, 2017 Reverted to old versions -- thankfully still had the installers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onoitsu2 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 This currently is a rough beta, beta 4, there is a beta 5 due to be out in a few weeks time to quote @Nick Bolton "This will be fixed in beta5 (due in 4-5 weeks). Need a refund? refunds@symless.com" It is far from perfect, but I am loving it overall, it seems more snappy than 1.8 was in my setup. It may currently exclude you from installing and using it. However it should not in the later versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GranPaSmurf Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Several of us are back on Synergy 1.8 but enthusiastic about picking back up when beta 5 arrives. If you're just not into participating in beta even later, be sure to contact: refunds@symless.com to get your investment back. No harm, no foul, no problem.

Kelvin Tran Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Well, as mentioned by the op (and I'm just going to reiterate here), a beta is a beta. People who need this for production are personally recommended by @Nick Bolton and his team to NOT use Synergy 2, but use the more stable branches that are nearly always going to work (note: "nearly"), or at least relative to this beta branch. As mentioned by @KringleKrebs, refunds@symless.com is the email to contact if you want support concerning refunds, and the community is here for you if you'd like to continue messing with Synergy 2 on a test set of systems or during a time where production is not of the utmost priority.
