RE: Is there a Windows clipboard manager that doesn't clash with -clipboard parameter?
Ah, good. Since that isn't showing in the cygwin installer I guess I need to install the beta cygwin to get it?

Yes, you need to install 1.7 ( http://www.cygwin.com/setup-1.7.exe ). To tell all the truth I was sticking to 1.5 and try to wait as much as was possible before passing to 1.7 (I feared possible problems/troubles in installation and reconfiguration/tweak to my needs), the reason I switched to 1.7 was, in fact, to try the improvements in the clipboard handling in X.org 1.6.0. I must tell I'm satisfied with it: after installing 1.7 and configuring it a bit, I never used 1.5 anymore.

Re: Is there a Windows clipboard manager that doesn't clash with -clipboard parameter?
Hi, I had problems with all the clipboard managers I tried (4 or 5), until I upgraded my X-Org Server about 10 days ago. Now most problems are solved.

Re: Is there a Windows clipboard manager that doesn't clash with -clipboard parameter?
Are you using the very latest X-Org server? I was having bad problems with VNC, but they've since disappeared with the latest X release. - Jim On 7/24/2009 12:47 AM, Alister Hood wrote: I've found that -clipboard clashes with Windows clipboard history managers such as Ditto.
