Quicksynergy autostart Ubuntu

Starting quicksynergy in Ubuntu is actually really easy. If you do a "ps aux" after you have quicksynergy configured and running you will see something like
/usr/bin/synergys -f --config .quicksynergy/synergy.conf

All you need to do is add this to your "Startup Applications"
System Settings -> Startup Applications -> Add
Name: Synergy
Command: /usr/bin/synergys -f --config .quicksynergy/synergy.conf
Add->Close->Log out and log back in.

Done!

Thanks! I've updated https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynergyHowto#On_the_Server-2 with this information.

Thank You
Although i had to run "ps aux" and check for my command, which was
"/usr/bin/synergyc -f --name Ubuntu 192.168.122.123"
Ubuntu is the client screen name
192.168.122.123 is the server's IP Address
