I also get a crash report when ubuntu edgy starts up. However, the program appears to be working just fine. I have synergys listed as one of the startup programs in System|Preferences|Sessions. When I log into ubuntu, I get the crash report icon in the upper left-hand corner saying that synergys has crashed, but despite the crash report, synergy is up and running and my client has successfully connected to it. I am unable to determine whether synergys restarted itself or just falsely generated a crash report. I've upgraded/downgraded back and forth from dapper to edgy several times and each time I go to edgy, I get this problem.

I have exactly the same setup as Art Sherwood describes above and I also get the same crash. Also on Edgy.

New Information:

The crash is not happening at startup, it is actually happening at shutdown. The crash report simply shows up the next time you log in. I had reinstalled edgy and had not yet put synergy into my startup program list but I had started it manually and everything worked fine. Then I rebooted and sure enough, there was the crash report, even though synergy was not in my startup list.

Hope this helps.

I don't know about anyone else but I run synergy out of gnome session
configuration (System->Preferences->Session->Startup Programs). I'm not sure
that this handles shutting the process down cleanly, but I'm guessing that
it's not happening till "Sending all process the term signal..." at the end
of the shutdown sequence.

FYI: I no longer get any errors in Edgy. It seems to be working perfectly now. It seems to have been a problem with Edgy itself that has since resolved itself.
