Mac and Linux Considerations

Š

For Mac OS versions 10.4.11 and higher, there is a second DynaSync 
setting to choose from. If the default Mouse DynaSync result is not 
satisfactory, try the 

Mac 2

 setting. To select Mac 2, right click in the text 

area of the Control Panel and select 

Mouse Sync Mode

 

 

Automatic for 

Mac 2

:

Š

Linux doesn’t support DynaSync Mode, but there is a setting on the Mouse 
Sync Mode menu for Redhat AS3.0 systems. If you are using a USB 
Adapter Cable (see the Note on the previous page), with an AS3.0 system 
and the default mouse synchronization is not satisfactory, you can try the 
Redhat AS3.0 setting. In either case, you must perform the manual mouse 
synchronization procedures described in the next section.

Manual Mouse Synchronization

If the local mouse pointer goes out of sync with the remote system's mouse 
pointer there are a number of methods to bring them back into sync:

1. Perform a video and mouse auto sync by clicking the 

Video Settings

 icon 

on the Control Panel (see page 73).

2. Perform an 

Auto Sync

 with the Video Adjustment function (see 

Video 

Settings

, page 73, for details).

3. Invoke the 

Adjust Mouse

 function with the 

Adjust Mouse

 hotkeys (see 

Adjust mouse

, page 65, for details).

4. Move the pointer into all 4 corners of the screen (in any order).

5. Drag the Control Panel to a different position on the screen.

6. Set the mouse speed and acceleration for each problematic server attached 

to the switch. See

Additional Mouse Synchronization Procedures

page 265, for instructions.
