Thanks for all the testing; it's very helpful.
When you move the mouse rapidly between screens, does it crash every
time? If not, does it seem to make crashes happen more quickly?
Rapid movement does _not_ cause a problem each time, but it seems that
each time there is a problem, it was during rapid movement.
Right now I'm testing the Synergy 1.4.x deb - I'm trying hard to avoid
removing the limits because of my setup here.
It suddenly occurs to me that my setup here may be an additional issue
-- conflict over what the edge hit means. I have GNOME on top of
elightenment window manager, with multiple workspaces/desktops (3
workspaces in a 3x1 array, each workspace contains a 2x2 array of
virtual desktops). When inside a workspace I like to mouse between each
set of 2x2 desktops and I'd wouldn't have access to my left windows if I
were to remove the limits - any movement to the left would push me onto
the other screen.
So the issue might be contention between enlightenment and synergy over
the meaning of the mouse hit at the left edge...?
I'd switch to a different window manager if I could find one that
switches between virtual desktops when I hit the edge of the current
desktop. In fact no others seem to allow virtual desktops inside a
workspace, or perhaps I'm reading the documentation incorrectly.
Thanks for your patience. I'll report back when I have further details.
