Hi list,
Mike has developed a very nice python gui client. We are going to use this with our product. However it seems that with the latest version of VcXsrv (1.10.0) there is an issue with the clipboard. Copying from my PC to the X-session works OK. However, the other way around does not.
There is a new parameter --clipboardprimary that should alter the behaviour of the clipboard. However it does not seem to make any difference.
Anyone else seen this behaviour and hopefully knows something to solve this?

Copy+paste between X2go client and X2go server with Windows (XP) as a
client and VcXsrv as XServer does work. However, the behaviour is not
as a normal user would expect it.
copy+paste _from_ Windows application _to_ unix application in X2go session -> works well
copy+paste _from_ unix application in X2go session _to_ Windows
application does work, but...
... the user has to press CTRL+v (paste) and keep it pressed until the
keyboard starts repeating the letter pressed (like pressing the key
,,v'' and holding it down for a bit and then you get
,,vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv'' - do that with STRG+v and you will see
your string pasted into your Windows application).
The above behaviour seems extraodinary. Has anyone else encountered
such a pattern with VcXsrv (or any other Win32 XServer) and has an
idea about it?
@Phil: if you can confirm the described issue, could you cross-post it
to the VcXsrv developer?
Thanks+Greets, Mike

Mike et al,
I have forwarded the information to the VcxSrv dev directly on his business email; which I will not disclose. Marc is awesome and will get these things sorted.
One area we have real issues with, which he cannot replicate, is the toggling of Num Lock between physical and X2Go sessions. If you can break it please let me know with suitable steps.
Cheers, and when responding please take 30 seconds to think about the people in Japan.
Phil.

We haven't played with that yet. Thanks for hinting the issue.

Indeed. I know two persons related two Japan and I have started
collecting news...

Mike,
here is a note the VcxSrv developer:
"Hi Phil,
The clipboard windows paste problem was an easy one to reproduce and fix. It has been fixed in revision 1254.
Regards, Marc"
Thanks, Phil

He is still trying to work out the NumLock issue though has
identified on Win7/Vista it works okay but not on XP!
Hmmmm.... so the next release has to wait for this fix also... Ok...
Cheers, Mike

Mike,
The dev has sent me a build to test which hopefully resolves the numlock issue ... Will give this a test and if that works okay then hopefully Marc will roll a new package.

At this point, according to our testing, vcxsrv is 100% ready to go. I also think we need to roll lit out ASAP as the bugs using Xming are truly critical.
So this email is to ask how. It seems 3.01-18 is not quite ready yet. Ill ask Phil to summarize the issues as I don't recall them completely. If 3.01-18 is not going to be stable very soon, may I ask the devs to roll a new release of whatever we do consider stable (3.01-14?) as client/plugin so that we solve these critical issues.
We could probably roll an NSIS Windows installer if we had to but I would prefer not as it is not an area of expertise and we could easily make some subtle mistake. We do not feel at all competent to create a new plugin release. Thanks - John
