Hi,

this isn't a Xorg issue it's just a X11 forwarding issue.
Newer OpenSSH versions don't use trusted X11 forwarding by default which
results in the above error if you try to cut & paste.
Just use trusted X11 forwarding and all should be fine.

Either ssh -Y server-hostname or add "ForwardX11Trusted yes" to your ssh
config file.
