Public bug reported: Binary package hint: vinagre
This bug was reported here: http://bugzilla.gnom10.org/show_bug.cgi?id=570801 I am told that is has been fixed in more recent versions of Gnome. It does not occur in Ubuntu 8.10. How does the fix get back ported into Ubuntu 8.04 LTS a (which is supposed to be supported through April 2011)? Here is the issue: I am running vinagre 0.5.1 on Ubuntu 8.04 with all current patches. I connect to another Ubuntu 8.04 machine. I can right click and copy a file on the remote machine however, when I attempt to right click and paste the file to another location on the remote machine the paste option is grayed out. I can drag and drop the same file between two locations no problem. I can copy and paste the file in question if I access the machine locally or use tsclient 0.150 for the remote access. It appears that this issue only involves copying and pasting files. I can copy and paste text within gedit for example. I have confirmed this on 2 remote Ubuntu 8.04 machines. The problem does NOT occur when I access a remote Ubuntu 7.10 machine - I can copy and paste on the older version of Ubuntu. All 4 machines are plain vanilla installs of Ubuntu. No fancy configurations. Here is a summary of some additional testing: Local: Ubuntu 8.10 - vinagre 2.24.1 Remote: Ubuntu 8.04 - vino 2.22.2 Result: can copy and paste files on remote desktop Local: Ubuntu 8.0.4 - vinagre 0.5.1 Remote: Ubuntu 8.10 - vino 2.24.1 Result: can copy and paste files on remote desktop Local: Ubuntu 8.0.4 - vinagre 0.5.1 Remote: Ubuntu 8.04 - x11vnc 0.9.3.dfsg.1 (instead of vino) Result: can copy and paste files on remote desktop Local: Ubuntu 8.0.4 - vinagre 0.5.1 Remote: Ubuntu 7.10 - x11vnc 0.8.2-2 (instead of vino) Result: can copy and paste files on remote desktop (also worked before I changed the remote to x11vnc per my original report Local: Ubuntu 8.0.4 - vinagre 0.5.1 Remote: Ubuntu 8.04 - vino 2.22.2 Result: can copy and NOT paste files on remote desktop I do not have vinagre installed on the Ubuntu 7.10 machine - it is an old Pentium II and it is doing all it can to run GrabIt under Wine and leach binaries from Usenet :-) It looks like the issue is between vinagre 0.5.1 and vino 2.22.2 as all other combinations seem to work. Please let me know if there is any other information which I can provide. ** Affects: vinagre (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Cannot copy and paste a file on remote PC https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/336034 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to vinagre in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
