Hi, I have just installed Cygwin and the latest X package onto a new laptop and am having problems with cut & paste within X. The problem is NOT between X and MS Windows, which I have not yet tried.
Any text within X-term or urxvt is highlighted correctly but when clicking the centre mouse button it is not pasted into either the same x-term or any other. Initially I did a fresh install of of Cygwin 1.5 with the latest X server packages , but cut and paste did not not work, I therefore installed Cygwin 1.7 with the same Xserver packages but the problem still persisted. I currently have both 1.5 and 1.7 installed but am concentrating on 1.7. Before changing the laptop cut and paste worked without a problem, unfortunately I no longer have the old laptop so cannot compare packages etc. The problem is not specific to any Window manager as it also happens without any window manager running, I am currently running WindowMaker but previously ran Openbox, which is my preferred window manager. Has anyone experienced a similar problem ? The old laptop was a Dell Latitude D410 the new one is a Dell Latitude E4300. If any further information is required please let me know what is required Stv T -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
