Please provide any additional information below.
The way I am currently using to avoid this problem is to (Inside screen or
tmux)
1. :mks!
2. exit vim
3. vim -S Session.vim
Then everything works well again.
Another way to avoid this problem is to
1. :gui
Then I can yank and paste using yy and p inside the newly opened gvim.
I think the problem is happening because vim lost the connection to the X11
server after killing the X11 server. Would it be possible to make a command
that makes a new connection to a X11 server inside vim? Or before yanking
check if a connection to a X11 server is open and if not make a new
connection to a X11 server?
