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.
s/-Y/-X/
No, he meant -Y and that is indeed correct.
Sorry, I verified this on a my 4-Stable PC and the -Y option was not
there. It's there only with 5.3.
Bottom line is: with 5.3 being inbetween Current and Stable, and 6 being
the HEAD, I'm always confused what's discussed on Stable and Current
mailinglists :).
Cheers,
Rob.
