I have a much better solution I use here (any annoying to my roomates while at it), i use x2x. <br>
x2x forwards keyboard and/or mouse movements to another x server provided you are on the access list.<br>
<br>
i usually launch with something like "x2x -to machinename:0 -east<br>
<br>
Then whenever I am watching myth and need to skip a commercial, i just
move the touchpad to the east of my display, skip the comm and then
move it back to my current display to keep chatting on aim or web
browsing. <br>
<br>
There is also a cygwin package that will work with xorg/cygwin that my
roomate likes to use on his laptop, if your laptop runs windows.<br>
