I have had a consistent bug in qt for several years.  I used to think it was in
Konsole, but now I've discovered it affects all qt applications, and persists
in the latest XQuartz.  The bug is the following: I can't copy directly from
Aqua into a qt window.  If I a copy something in Aqua and then switch to X11, I
can middle click the selection into anything (non-qt) that supports it (xterm,
etc.),  I can paste the clipboard into anything (non-qt) that supports that,
but attempting either of this in a qt app will result in a noop.  If I paste
into another window, select it, and then paste into the qt app, everything
works.  (Don't even get my started on what happens when I start Klipper with
"synchronize clipboard and selection" selected.)

Anybody else seen this?  Are there work arounds.  IS this a bug in qt or in
XQuartz?  

Thanks

In 1997 a group of programmers started writing a desktop environment to fix a
travesty they didn't create.  Their program promptly found its way onto un*x
systems everywhere. Today, still opposed by a software monopolist, they survive
as soldiers of fortune.  If you share their vision, if you know you can help,
and if you can connect to internet, maybe you can join... the K-Team.
