Hello, We are connecting from our windows machines to a debian testing machine via cygwin:
C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\XWin.exe :0 -clipboard -nodecoration -query debian-server The debian-server was a SuSE machine in earlier times. Since we changed it to debian some months ago, the clipboard exchange between windows and the x11 session doesn't work anymore. This is quite annoying and we have no idea how to fix this. Can anyone help ? When connecting the same way to a SuSE machine, the clipboard is working. XWin's output concerning the clipboard is the following (its the same for SuSE and debian): winProcEstablishConnection - Hello winProcEstablishConnection - Xdmcp enabled, waiting to start clipboard client un til fourth call. winProcEstablishConnection - Hello winProcEstablishConnection - Xdmcp enabled, waiting to start clipboard client un til fourth call. winProcEstablishConnection - Hello winProcEstablishConnection - Xdmcp enabled, waiting to start clipboard client un til fourth call. winInitClipboard () winProcQueryTree - winInitClipboard returned. winClipboardProc - Hello DetectUnicodeSupport - Windows NT/2000/XP winClipboardProc - DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0 winProcEstablishConnection - Hello winProcEstablishConnection - Clipboard client already launched, returning. winClipboardProc - XOpenDisplay () returned and successfully opened the display.
