Subject: Cut and Paste between X and WindowsXP sometimes fails
Date: Fri, 03 Feb 2012 22:55:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9E085D377965634187A85638358AE611019DB48492@DCXPRCL017.cnf.prod.cnf.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4F2C0809.6090103@dronecode.org.uk>

Often when "cutting" from Xwin and attempting to "Paste" to a WindowsXP application,
the "most recent" "cut" is not pasted... but instead a "previous" Xwin "cut".

In other words, this scenario:

    LOCATION    ACT            Comment
    Xwin        Cut "abc"
    WinXP       Paste		 correctly pastes "abc"
    Xwin	    Cut "def"
    WinXP       Paste		 Incorrectly pastes "abc"

When the above problem occurs, no matter how many times a "cut" from Xwin,
Whenever I paste on WinXP it pastes "abc".

I can "correct" the problem by "cutting" from WinXP and pasting into Xwin...
...after doing this the next Xwin "cut" will "correctly" paste on WinXP.


Below is the start of my Xwin.0.log.

Thanks for any advise.
