Bug Description

Binary package hint: quicksynergy

Info:
Server -
  Windows XP Desktop
Client -
  Ubuntu Feisty Fox on Compaq Presario V620US Laptop
  Using Broadcom w/ NDISWrapper

Once I connect to my server it runs fine for a minute or two, but then it suddenly stops(usually after pasting or right clicking). After investigating a little more, I noticed that my wifi dies as soon as it crashes. The wifi light turns from blue to orange which indicates it's off. Network-manager still looks like it's connected, but I can't connect to any webpages.

The server tells me "NOTE: client "alex-laptop" is dead." Quicksynergy doesn't crash, and I can stop it fine.

So, I'm not sure how, but quicksynergy is turning off my wifi.

It is definitely not a bug in quicksynergy since it is just a graphical frontend to synergy2. It could be a bug in your wireless driver. Thank you for reporting this issue.
