Hi Jon, thanks for giving your attention to this. 8-)

It is reproducable in both directions (Win -> X, X -> Win), with any application on both sides. So I choose a xterm with a vim for X, and a notepad for Windows. /bin/startxwin -- /bin/XWin -emulate3buttons 100 -logverbose 3 As a setup I type "eins-zwei-drei" into X's vim, and "hallo" into the notepad. Then I select the "eins-zwei-drei" text in X. Then I select the "hallo" text in the notepad and press CONTROL C. Effect: the highlighting of the text "eins-zwei-drei" in vim/X disappears immediately. Then in both editors I open a new line and paste the text of the clipboard in it. In vim/X it pastes "eins-zwei-drei" (using both mouse keys via middle mouse button emulation). In notepad it pasts "hello" (using CONTROL V). Then I close both editors, kill XWin and get the Log. -> See Log 1 (attached). Now for the other direction: /bin/startxwin -- /bin/XWin -emulate3buttons 100 -logverbose 3 As a setup I again type "eins-zwei-drei" into X's vim, and "hallo" into a notepad. Then I select the "hallo" text in the notepad and press CONTROL C. I press CONTROL V several times to verify that I have selected something. Notepad pastes: "hallo". Then I select the "eins-zwei-drei" text in X/vim. I check out the result: I go back to the notepad and continue to press CONTROL V: nothing gets pasted any more. I go to the X/vim window, open a new vim line and (using both mouse keys via middle mouse button emulation) I check what gets pasted: "eins-zwei-drei". Then I close both editors, kill XWin and get the Log. -> See Log 2 (attached). In both logs I found the name of my PC and my user name, and I replaced that information by XXX. > Are you running any Windows programs which continuously > monitor the clipboard > like 'Clipbook Viewer', VNC client, etc.? Sorry, I don't know these programs.
