copy and paste to X11 window


  • Subject: copy and paste to X11 window
  • From: Tom Intrator <email@hidden>

I have been puzzled by my inability to copy and paste to and from X11 windows. The usual comments on this list about this dilemma center on making sure that quartz is running, for instance by adding

quartz-wm --only-proxy &

to the ~/.xinitrc file

X11 (beta 0.2.1) seems to work fine without the ~/.xinitrc file, since there seems to be one in /usr/X11R6 .. Besides creating the ~/.xinitrc file seems to inhibit the X11 window from showing up at all.

I am thinking the problem with paste was related to something left over from Darwin or OroborOSX. I renamed the old X11R6 directory before installing Apple X11, but this does not fix the problem. On the other hand, installing X11 over a clean Apple OS10.2.3 seems to fix the problem. Are there mysterious files associated with XDarwin that need to be tracked down and ditched? How about other incompatibilities? eg with SDK?

thanks
