Did you get this working?

I can try and walk you through this, but I will have to see if I can remember how I got it working.....

dredging up old posts....

I'm new to Linux, even newer to Puppy, and am trying to get synergy working.

I've unrpm'd synergy and downloaded/installed libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3.pup from the website above (using pupget). When I go to run synergy, though, it states:
synergyc: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.2-2.3: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory
My first thought was that it was referring to the library, so I re-installed the library. Puppy told me that it was already installed, but I reinstalled anyway.

I'm sure this is an obvious oversight, but not being versed in linux, I have no idea where to start or where to look.
Ideas?

thanks in advance,

Synergy

Howdy moret,

Sorry, it was so long ago I posted that, I have forgotten what I did to get it working.

It CAN be done; I had a 3 desktop setup running LinuxMint-Puppy-WinXP

IIRC I had Synergy "hosted" on Mint, with Puppy & XP as "clients"

I have switched over to virtual machines on one PC to get the application functionality I needed, so don't use Synergy anymore.

Good luck; its excellent once you get it working

Success!

Turns out, for those of us *VERY* new to linux, and Puppy (ver 4.1.2) specifically... downloading the lib. file, and trying to install it via pupget doesn't actually install it. I assumed it had (no message otherwise, and don't know where to look to verify).
Instead, since it was a .pup file, I needed to install the pup handler first. Once that was installed, and then I actually installed the library, it works beautifully!
I knew it would be obvious....

Thanks a lot for your great "manual"!!!
Works like a charm now under puppy 5.0.1 and Mac Osx 10.4.11!!! (now I could even realise my 3-screen-setup! xD)
Thanks!

Hello all, I'm a newbie to Puppy, but a Ham, want to experiment a little.
Is synergy working in any version of Puppy?
Those of you that are Ham Radio operators, I want to setup an I-gate for APRS with Xastir and/or PSKmail server.

I just tried installing synergy via the following file:
synergy-master-stable-130a248-Linux-i686.deb

on both tahrpup 6.0.2 and 6.0.5 and it worked without issue.

It can be downloaded here:
