QSynergy is a complete graphical frontend for Synergy. Synergy lets you control the keyboard and mouse on multiple computers using just one set. The clipboard, screensaver and screen lock are also synchronized.
Synergy does come with a Windows client, but it can easily be confusing. QSynergy uses the Synergy core but adds a better graphical client for Windows, Linux, and Mac.
Even with the better client it can still be confusing. On the screen settings page, if you do not make screen name the same as the network name of the computer you want to control, you have to add the network name as an alias. Your computer’s network name is found by right clicking “Computer” in the start menu (My Computer in XP) and selecting “Properties”.
Side note, sorry for the quietness for the last month. I was on vacation.
