Posted January 29 This is a relatively fresh install of Ubuntu 18.10. The .deb file remains forever at 0% when installing either Synergy 1 or 2 through the GUI. When installing through the CLI, for Synergy 1 I get: sudo dpkg -i synergy_1.10.1.stable_b87+8941241e_debian_amd64.deb (Reading database ... 195005 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to unpack synergy_1.10.1.stable_b87+8941241e_debian_amd64.deb ... Unpacking synergy (1.10.1.stable~b87+8941241e) over (1.10.1.stable~b87+8941241e) ... dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of synergy: synergy depends on libavahi-compat-libdnssd1 (>= 0.6.16); however: Package libavahi-compat-libdnssd1 is not installed. dpkg: error processing package synergy (--install): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Processing triggers for desktop-file-utils (0.23-3ubuntu3) ...

Errors were encountered while processing: synergy Synergy 2 appears to install correctly through the CLI but when I open the application I get: Failed to launch "Synergy" Failed to fork (Cannot allocate memory) I would really rather get Synergy 1 working as I find it much more polished and it's the one I use on the systems that will be interacting with this Ubuntu server. Please help, thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 30 Hello @Niche can you please try installing Synergy downloading the app from the Symless.com web page and using Linux UI? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As mentioned, both installers (1 & 2) through the UI remain at 0% during the installation indefinitely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 11 If you have this specific issue, please try the following: sudo apt-get install libavahi-compat-libdnssd1 Then try to run the install for synergy again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
