Description Swapna Krishnan 2012-05-17 19:08:46 UTC

Description of problem: I'm using virt-viewer from http://elmarc.fedorapeople.org/virt-viewer-0.5.3.exe built by Marc-Andre from a Win7-32 client. When I connect to a Win7x64 guest using remote-viewer.exe (part of virt-viewer package) and try to copy-paste within the guest, it doesn't work. 

Copy-paste works when connected through spicec.exe. 

vdagent is running in the guest.

I'm filing this bug against spice-client-win component since virt-viewer component or spice-gtk component does not exist for RHEV-M yet. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virt-viewer-0.5.3

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Connect to guest using remote-viewer.exe
2. Open Notepad and type something. 
3. Select typed text and copy it
4. Paste within notepad itself on another line
5. Notepad doesn't respond for a few seconds, then becomes active again but paste doesn't happen
  
Actual results:
Paste doesn't work

Expected results:
Text copied should be pasted
