Subject: XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-39
Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2004 19:58:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4002FC5B.2010002@msu.edu> (raw)

The clipboard code has been released in the new 'curr' version of 
XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-39.

There are some minor issues that will need to be fixed eventually, 
particularly concerning bugs with server resets.  Though, there are 
other bugs in the non-Cygwin specific code for handling resets that will 
need to be fixed as well in order for resets to start working reliably.

To use the new clipboard code, do the following:

1) Edit your startup script (startxwin.bat, startxdmcp.bat, or 
startxwin.sh).

2) Remove any launching of 'xhost', unless you specifically know that 
you need it.

3) Remove any launching of 'xwinclip'; xwinclip provides similar 
functionality to the '-clipboard' integrated clipboard client.

4) Add the '-clipboard' command-line parameter to the line that launches 
XWin.exe.  For example, change 'XWin -multiwindow' to 'XWin -multiwindow 
-clipboard'.

5) The integrated clipboard client will work with local applications, 
ssh tunneled applications, and Xdmcp sessions without any special 
configuration or startup-file hacks.
