Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/debauchee/barrier/issues/326

Operating Systems

I'm running Ubuntu 18.10 on two laptops (call them tosh-ubuntu and hp-ubuntu) and FerenOS (call it tosh-ferenOS) on a third. I have installed Barrier version 2.2.0 on all three machines. The hp-ubuntu machine is the nominated server, while tosh-ubuntu and tosh-ferenOS are clients.

Barrier Version

2.2.0

Steps to reproduce bug

The connection between hp-ubuntu and tosh-ferenOS is working fine, with the server keyboard and mouse functioning on both machines. There is connection between the hp-ubuntu and the tosh-ubuntu, however the mouse cursor is not visible on the tosh-ubuntu. The log indicates that the mouse is entering and leaving the screen on tosh-ubuntu.

Other info

The Processes tab under the System Monitor says both barrier and barrierc are up and running. The only difference I can see between the two clients is that the tosh-ubuntu has no Waiting Channel. The Waiting Channel for the server machine (hp-ubuntu) is poll_schedule_timeout.constprop.15, whereas for the tosh-ferenOS it is poll_schedule_timeout.constprop.11.

Is this a fixable issue?

As a matter of fact, yes--tosh-ubuntu was. Now it ain't and barrier works across all three machines! Too easy! Still no Waiting Channel on that machine but that doesn't seem to matter.
