Description Rob Bruce 2011-12-01 08:34:48 UTC
When an application that uses gtk3 (terminal, epiphany etc) are maximized, synergy does not detect that the mouse is at the edge of the screen. This bug has been identified on the synergy foss website and a patch already created.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Maximize terminal in Gnome 3
2. Try to move mouse to different screen

Actual Results:  
Mouse should move to other screen

Expected Results:  
Mouse stays at edge of current screen

Attached is an ebuild which uses the patch on the synergy-foss.org website. I can confirm that this patch works on amd64.
