Support for MX and antiX Linux distros

Currently I use a main pc and a second one for testing. Taking the right keyboard or mouse is not always easy.Fibogacci wrote: Mon Apr 29, 2019 3:00 pm ...
I also have never heard of Barrier (or Synergy) and found it here in this Forum's thread, so I've installed.

With the "Linux Mint" I have "barrier" running, but with the "MX Linux 18" I don't manage to install "barrier".
I hope you can explain to a DAU how it works from the given source ....
possibly with - configure - make - make install
Thank you
Thank you very much - that was the solution - about Flatpaks.Fibogacci wrote: Tue May 28, 2019 4:22 pm ....
As I wrote, I installed it and run, but I couldn't connect my two computers. Maybe it was something wrong with my settings/configuration, maybe something with installation/flatpak or something else.

Thanks for the Quick Reply but I'm having issues with Barrier and not Synergy.f.denys wrote: Sun Dec 26, 2021 8:23 am No problems here, using Synergy 1 PRO (paid). Using MX21 as Synergy-server and MX19.4 as client.
It seems on my main machine, I had Firewall Settings enabled to prevent incoming traffic, allowing that made Barrier work as expected and I could connect from MX-21 to MX-18. With regards to MX-21 to Win-10, It should work as well but I'll confirm in a while.Aksh wrote: Sun Dec 26, 2021 7:29 am On MX-21, I'm not able to connect from MX-21 to WIN-10 or MX-21 to MX-18 using Barrier. It's working from WIN-10 to WIN-10 just fine.
No Problem. Appreciate all your help.SwampRabbit wrote: Fri Dec 31, 2021 5:24 am @Aksh thats good news. Sorry for the delayed reply. You can ensure the backports Repo is disabled using MX Repo Manager.
It's not working.Aksh wrote: Fri Dec 31, 2021 12:30 am With regards to MX-21 to Win-10, It should work as well but I'll confirm in a while.
Thanks for very useful pointers as always. I'll troubleshoot it myself and will update.SwampRabbit wrote: Sat Jan 08, 2022 12:04 am @Aksh you're best bet unless someone else tests it is to troubleshoot like you did before:
- check the firewall on both end
- on MX launch barrier from the terminal to see if there is any output
- verify what they have on their GitHub
https://github.com/debauchee/barrier/#usage
https://github.com/debauchee/barrier/#f ... -questions
I see some commits recently since the last release for issues with Windows, if you can't get it to work, I can try and build off the latest source files in the next week or so.
Alright, After trying to troubleshoot with many permutations and combinations with very useful pointers from @SwampRabbit, could fix the issue finally, which was so trivial that it could easily go unnoticed. I'll get some time off to write a detailed note on the same.Aksh wrote: Sat Jan 08, 2022 3:20 am Thanks for very useful pointers as always. I'll troubleshoot it myself and will update.
