Running Synergy1 (Pro version / with serial) on Xubuntu 20.04.
It works smoothly, only the keyboard layout on the client is wrong for me (defaults to US).

Running this after connecting the client, fixes my keyboard layout (to `AT`):
`setxkbmap at -option grp:alt_shift_toggle`

Consult `man xkeyboard-config` for available layout strings/languages.

I hope to find out how to make this reboot/restart-safe.

If you want a desktop/menu entry, you can copy/paste this code and save it to "set_kb_layout.desktop" to have a launcher icon:

Code: Select all

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Name=Set AT keyboard
Comment=Launch this after synergy client has connected.
Exec=setxkbmap at -option grp:alt_shift_toggle
Icon=accessories-character-map
Path=
Terminal=true
StartupNotify=false
