I've done the install with yum, (so fantastic that I can yum from the xo!) but in terminal if I try

 $ synergyc -n xo -f 192.168.2.12

I get "XTEST extension not available", and "cannot open secondary screen: unable to open screen"

is there a better way (or place) to start the client?

I'm having the same problem. When I run "synergyc" on the XO, I get the error:
DEBUG: CXWindowsScreen.cpp,840: XOpenDisplay(":0")
ERROR: CXWindowsScreen.cpp,851: XTEST extension not available
FATAL: synergyc.cpp,343: cannot open secondary screen: unable to open screen
If anyone knows how to fix, it would be greatly appreciated (and should perhaps be mentioned in the article).
