Hi , True , i was running an older VNC server. But after running a VNC4 server and using vncconfig just slightly improved the situation. Now Linux->Win copy works for all types of applications in Win (like Outlook, Wordpad etc.), but only when selected in a xterm in Linux. Likewise, Win->Linux copy is pasting to xterm, vim , but it is not pasting to other applications like gnome-terminal, Mozilla (URL window) etc. What might be the problem now ? I use the gnome-terminal rather than the xterm because it has the slider bar.
Thanks in advance. -Ujjal On 5/18/06, James Weatherall <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Ujjal, > > You're running an old VNC 3 series server, which doesn't support the VNC > extension required by the VNC 4 series "vncconfig" command. > > Regards, > > Wez @ RealVNC Ltd. > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ujjal Bose > > Sent: 17 May 2006 14:30 > > To: [email protected] > > Subject: vncconfig error while trying to enable copy paste > > between X and Win32 clipboards > > > > Hi , > > > > I am getting this following error while trying to run > > vncconfig (I think > > this needs to be run to enable copy paste between X and Win32 > > clipboards) : > > > > i-xterm-05:> vncconfig -iconic -nowin > > > > No VNC extension on display i-xterm-05:17.0 > > > > My vncserver (i-xterm-05:17) is already up with no problems. > > > > Below are my contents for "uname -a" , xstartup and log files : > > > > i-xterm-05:> uname -a > > > > Linux i-xterm-05 2.4.21-27.ELsmp #1 SMP Mon Feb 28 18:43:54 > > EST 2005 i686 > > athlon i386 GNU/Linux > > > > -----------------xstartup contents > > ------------------------------------------------ > > > > #!/bin/csh > > > > # $Id: //hw/nv/env/.vnc/xstartup#9 $ > > > > vncconfig -iconic -nowin & > > > > if ($OSTYPE == "Linux") then > > > > # Linux > > > > xrdb $HOME/.Xresources > > > > \xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" & > > > > /usr/bin/gnome-session & > > > > #/usr/bin/startkde & > > > > #fvwm2 & > > > > xhost + > > > > else > > > > # sun > > > > xrdb $HOME/.Xresources > > > > xrdb -load glx > > > > \xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" & > > > > xsetroot -solid grey > > > > /usr/dt/bin/dtwm& > > > > xhost + > > > > endif > > > > ----------------------end of xstartup > > contents---------------------------------------- > > > > ----------------i-xterm-05: > > 17.log------------------------------------------------------- > > > > 17/05/06 17:46:26 Xvnc version 3.3.7 - built Jan 19 2004 13:08:51 > > > > 17/05/06 17:46:26 Copyright (C) 2002-2003 RealVNC Ltd. > > > > 17/05/06 17:46:26 Copyright (C) 1994-2000 AT&T Laboratories Cambridge. > > > > 17/05/06 17:46:26 All Rights Reserved. > > > > 17/05/06 17:46:26 See http://www.realvnc.com for information on VNC > > > > 17/05/06 17:46:26 Desktop name 'X' (i-xterm-05:17) > > > > 17/05/06 17:46:26 Protocol version supported 3.3 > > > > 17/05/06 17:46:26 Listening for VNC connections on TCP port 5917 > > > > 17/05/06 17:46:26 Listening for HTTP connections on TCP port 5817 > > > > 17/05/06 17:46:26 URL http://i-xterm-05:5817 > > > > [1] 3162 > > > > No VNC extension on display i-xterm-05:17 > > > > [1] + Exit 1 vncconfig -iconic -nowin > > > > [1] 3166 > > > > [2] 3167 > > > > access control disabled, clients can connect from any host > > > > SESSION_MANAGER=local/i-xterm-05:/tmp/.ICE-unix/3167 > > > > Gnome-Message: gnome_execute_async_with_env_fds: returning -1 > > > > 17/05/06 17:51:06 Got connection from client 10.19.26.122 > > > > 17/05/06 17:51:06 Protocol version 3.3 > > > > 17/05/06 17:51:10 Pixel format for client 10.19.26.122: > > > > 17/05/06 17:51:10 8 bpp, depth 8 > > > > 17/05/06 17:51:10 true colour: max r 3 g 3 b 3, shift r 4 g 2 b 0 > > > > 17/05/06 17:51:10 rfbProcessClientNormalMessage: ignoring > > unknown encoding > > type -239 > > > > 17/05/06 17:51:10 rfbProcessClientNormalMessage: ignoring > > unknown encoding > > type -223 > > > > 17/05/06 17:51:10 Using ZRLE encoding for client 10.19.26.122 > > > > 17/05/06 17:51:10 Pixel format for client 10.19.26.122: > > > > 17/05/06 17:51:10 16 bpp, depth 16, little endian > > > > 17/05/06 17:51:10 true colour: max r 31 g 63 b 31, shift r 11 g 5 b 0 > > > > 17/05/06 17:51:10 no translation needed > > > > 17/05/06 17:51:10 rfbProcessClientNormalMessage: ignoring > > unknown encoding > > type -239 > > > > 17/05/06 17:51:10 rfbProcessClientNormalMessage: ignoring > > unknown encoding > > type -223 > > > > 17/05/06 17:51:10 Using hextile encoding for client 10.19.26.122 > > > > ---------------------------------end of i-xterm-05: > > 17.log-------------------------------------------------- > > _______________________________________________ > > VNC-List mailing list > > [email protected] > > To remove yourself from the list visit: > > http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [email protected] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
