Rundle5227yI use synergy2, it sounds similar. It works cross platform so I can use it on my Mac and Windows machines.

Codazed14477y@Rundle Synergy 2 is dumb as hell. 80% of the time, the mouse won't move over to the other screen, and I could be playing a game with Scroll Lock enabled (which if you didn't know, is supposed to disable Synergy) and I'll move my in-game camera to the right and my mouse will move over to the other screen. It's really annoying. I switched back to Synergy 1 because it actually works.

Rundle5227y@BaconatorNoVeg oh really? :( I've had the random disconnect here and there, it in general it's been pretty good to me.

For those who use Windows, have a desktop and notebook computer and want to use the same keyboard and mouse on both.
Windows has a program called "Mouse without Borders" that let you use the mouse and keyboard of one computer on another like a dual monitor setup. It's works via LAN and I have to say that I haven't any lag. You can copy text from one computer and paste into another and you can drag files too (that are copied to a special folder).
My desktop computer has a big monitor and of course it's better than my notebook and I don't want to spend money in another monitor, so this is a life saver for those who are in the same situation.
Cheers!
