Mouse. Span two screens. Win. and Lin.

On TechTV, I saw a demostration of software that allowed the user to span two monitors. The neat thig was: One monitor had RedHat on it and the other had Windows on it. I think all you needed was a network.

If anyone has heard of this, please let me know. It would make my life a lot easier.

Yeah, I remember that segment. The project is called Synergy. I always wanted to try it out, but never quite got around to it.

Check back and let me know how it works out.

Enjoy!

Very cool. Thanks. I'll post back it I get it working.

I have been using it with a WinXP to Win XP solution and it works perfectly.

I have to get it set up to run in Fedora, and finally adjust the configuration files so that either OS will connect to either OS (I have a DT dual booting XP and Fedora and a laptop also dual booting XP and Fedora).

I will probably play with the Fedora config this weekedn, as the installation went flawlessly.
