I am using KDE on both sides. And I did not have klipper (KDE's clipboard
manager) running. But I tried it with klipper running on both sides. I can see
klipper's cache on client getting updated with text from both the client and
the server but on server's klipper, the cache only shows server's selections
and cut&paste and nothing from client, which just confirms earlier findings.
I see this on the server side from the konsole window where I manually started
klipper:
QClipboard::setData: Cannot set X11 selection owner for PRIMARY
This happens every time I select text in konsole on the server. Not on the
client.
I had tested E17 and same results. I don't gave gnome (sort of religious issue
with it's folks...:)) on hand to test.
