that allows you to power down the display. Previously, synergy
would not power on the display if DPMS was enabled and activated
and xscreensaver was not running. It also wouldn't disable DPMS
so the display would power down normally on a synergy client if
there was no input activity.
screen saver from activating. It was unnecessary since the built-in
screen saver is disabled as appropriate; this call was just to
ensure that the screen saver wouldn't start if an external program
reactivated the screen saver after synergy disabled it.
It's possible that this was causing screen flicker under gnome, though
i don't know why. It's also possible that periodically sending events
to xscreensaver is causing the flicker but removing that code is more
difficult because xscreensaver can't be disabled, only deactivated or
killed.
It was doing that already if started through synergy but not if
started by something outside of synergy. In particular, if you
use `xscreensaver-command --activate' synergy used to send fake
mouse motion events every 5 seconds to deactivate it. That's
unlikely to be what the user wanted, especially if the locking is
enabled since it would force the password dialog to appear.
As before, it's recommended that client screens not use locking
because xscreensaver will not deactivate without getting a
password even if we make the request through a programmatic
interface. Presumably that's for security reasons but it makes
life harder for synergy.
synergy.cpp and server.cpp into cmd/synergyd as synergyd.cpp.
Moved and renamed related files. Moved remaining source files
into lib/.... Modified and added makefiles as appropriate.
Result is that library files are under lib with each library
in its own directory and program files are under cmd with each
command in its own directory.
