Synergy client displays incorrect keyboard characters

[shaka]

When using Synergy client to connect to a remote mouse and keyboard the keyboard displays incorrect characters locally. (Mouse works perfectly). For example, if I type " abcdefg " using the remote keyboard, it displays " l'[` " locally.

Using the Haiku Keymap app you can see clearly how the keyboard maps incorrectly.

Does changing the value of server_keymap in ~/config/settings/synergy improves things?

Valid settings: server_keymap = "X11" or server_keymap = "AT"

See: ​https://github.com/unarix/synergy_haiku/blob/master/README.md

Synergy is a ported application, bugs in it do not belong here.

i figured it out.. the instructions in the haikudepot just need to be updated to reflect the ones on the github page- the synergy config file needed the line

server_keymap = "X11"

now it works fine
