Popular Post josegalvez Posted November 17, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted November 17, 2017 not sure when wayland support is planned, but linux is moving pretty fast in that direction. Doesn't effect me at the moment, but I'm sure my next upgrade will see wayland on my computer either alone or alongside X. Either way X is clearly on its way out. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjkavalan Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Seconded, this was proposed a couple years ago too, but support was never added. https://github.com/symless/synergy-core/issues/4090 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaap aarts Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 they are thinking about doing this in 2.2, mid-2018. that's what they told me 2/3 months ago. I wish I could upvote to make this happen faster. but the more people ask for it the faster it will be there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igoshin Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 It will be great if they make it. I'm with debian 10 buster and by default is wayland already. Pretty soon and the other distros will follow Debian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josegalvez Posted November 22, 2017 Author Share Posted November 22, 2017 I'm using Ubuntu, and waiting to upgrade until 18.04 next April. That will be Wayland by default as well, so I too hope they add this earlier than later. In my opinion Wayland support is much more important than being able to drag files accross computers or other items they've struggled with.

deload Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 I use Windows, Mac, and Fedora so I would love if this gets done. I tried switching to x to get synergy 2 working but I have some other software that needs wayland so I currently can't use synergy 2 on my Fedora machine.

Bosko Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Hello, Any news regarding this? I don't mind if you add it to 1.x or 2.x, just something which works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrower Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 I'm also interested in this. I'm currently not able to use Synergy on Fedora 28 because of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't need Wayland, you can just switch to X.org from the login screen. Clicking the gear button will reveal a list of available sessions, one of which will be the same session you use but on Xorg instead of Wayland. Selecting it will make it the default for subsequent boots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allan k Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Hi.. yeah.. I need wayland... Wondering if this is available yet? (does this provide impetus for me to upgrade to 2.x then) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattW Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Yeah Im on Fedora on all my desktops, laptops etc and Wayland is the default now for a few years. Can we PLEASE get support for what is now a defacto standard in the community! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Hechinger Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I just switched from Xorg to Wayland on my Ubuntu 18.04 machine due to issues with Xorg (it crashes randomly ever since I switched to an AMD video card). Synergy 1.10.1 works. Kinda. I can type in the remote machine but Wayland appears to eat the Alt-Tab and gives it to GNOME even though the pointer is on the other machine. Don't know the status of 2.x though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Hechinger Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Nope, I stand corrected, it's not *quite* the same. Keyboard input for games stops working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Hechinger Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Ok, messing around 2.0 is pretty much unusable with Wayland. 1.10.1 works well enough until 2.1 get released. FYI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alphabet5 Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Adding my support. Centos8 and the beta isn't working yet. Is there a way to subscribe to updates on this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cryptworks@gmail.com Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 I learned something. Ubuntu + Wayland mostly does not seem to work, Unless you go Down on your host computer. Side to side is a no go. but down seems to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josegalvez Posted November 14, 2019 Author Share Posted November 14, 2019 What I have found is that for an edge to work there has to be an "X" window over it. Basically any window rendered with XWayland over the edge will allow the mouse to pass through.I Generally just leave the Synergy program open and over the edge I want to use. Not the most elegant solution, but at the moment it's a workaround. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
