Synergy remote keyboard setup - refusenik - 2012-07-21 I'd love to get a remote keyboard solution working with ATV1. I've read several people refer to Synergy. I followed the steps here: http://wiki.awkwardtv.org/wiki/Synergy To actually kick off the client on the ATV, I ran this (I can't figure out how to create the Application menu items -- but that's a separate issue): Code: ./synergyc --restart -f mac.local Where mac.local is my laptop name (the remote keyboard). I get the same error that the guy on the wiki reports: Code: bash-2.05b# ./Synergy.app/synergyc 10.1.0.12 dyld: Library not loaded: /System/Library/Frameworks/ScreenSaver.framework/Versions/A/ScreenSaver Referenced from: /mnt/Scratch/Users/frontrow/Applications/./Synergy.app/synergyc Reason: image not found Trace/BPT trap Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? You'd be a life-saver. My thumbs are developing arthritis from having to repeatedly type usernames and passwords. (Fine, a thumb-saver.) Alternately, does anyone have any other ways of using a keyboard remotely on the ATV1? Thank you! RE: Synergy remote keyboard setup - refusenik - 2012-07-23 I gave up getting it to work on the Mac OS, but finally got it to work on Crystalbuntu. For anyone else struggling with this, here's what I did. General instructions have been provided by someone else here. I've just outlined steps below to help get synergyc working on Crystalbuntu: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=90522
And that's it. The mouse doesn't seem to move anything on XBMC, but the keyboard works perfectly, and that's frankly all I care about. You can navigate easily using arrows, Enter and Escape. I searched lots of forums to find this information, but these two threads were most helpful: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/red-hat-31/usr-lib-libstdc-so-6-version-%60glibcxx_3-4-11-not-found-943114/ The *.deb file URL in the link above doesn't work, which is why I used the one in this link: http://forums.odforce.net/index.php?/topic/11968-how-to-fix-this-ubuntu-8-04/ |
