slow graphics when laptop display is disabled

oooh, they forked Synergty, nice! Been looking for a continuation of
that tool, their new rework has never worked properly for me.


Peter, this utility sets up a few client/daemons on different machines
that talk to each other, typically on the LAN. One machine will be the
main "host", and is the machine with the keyboard and mouse connected.
When the mouse reaches the edge of defined screens, it keeps track of
how far the mouse has moved, and sends this data over the LAN to the
appropriate machine, moving the mouse, and forwarding keyboard inputs
to that machine as well, allowing you to use your network as a KVM of
sorts but without the video input switching.
