But it seems that on the Ubuntu box the X cursor never initializes because there is no physical mouse attached to the box.\r\n\r\nMoving the cursor from the OSX screen to the Ubuntu screen shows the cursor disappear from the OSX but nothing is visible on the Ubuntu box.\r\n\r\nThere is even a message in the Synergy server log but I'm not sure how to resolve other than below:\r\n\r\n```\r\nINFO: switch from \"the-nothingness\" to \"hanzo\" at 0,271\r\nINFO: leaving screen\r\nWARNING: cursor may not be visible\r\n```\r\n\r\nThe manual work-around is to attach a physical mouse to the Ubuntu box to initialize the cursor (and then remove it) and synergy works as expected.\r\n\r\nBoth Ubuntu and OSX use Synergy 1.6.2\r\n"}}
