Description of problem: Pasting from the main X11 session into a (Tiger) VNC session doesn't work Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.14.2-9.fc19.x86_64 Latest official updates to date How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Launch a VNC session 2. Try to paste from main X into the VNC session Actual results: Generally what is pasted is what was before in the buffer if it was copied from _within_ the VNC session. Expected results: Pasted text from the main X session Additional info: The same VNC session works as expected with an older X from Fedora 17 so I assume the problem is not with VNC. Rdesktop also seems to be affected. I am not sure what X component may come into play here. And what other info might help here. Strangely enough pasting into VMPlayer works (if that is of any help)
Same experience. I lost the ability to paste any clipboard contents into an existing VNC session (even with vncconfig running in the F18 tigervnc server session with all options selected) when I moved from F17 to F18. F17 clients and prior (even Windows) can successfully paste their buffer contents into the same desktop. So far any F18/F19 clients fail to paste either the highlighted or copied clipboard contents.
I have the same issue. Might this be a duplicate of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=920573 ?
(In reply to Don Estabrook from comment #2) > I have the same issue. Might this be a duplicate of > https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=920573 ? Thanks. Not only does it sound very much the same, comment #8 posts a link to a recent tigerVNC nightly build that is _not_ exhibiting the long experienced pasting problems.
This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 19 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-01-06. Fedora 19 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates.
