I get the same (annoying!) problem... start X11 (v.2.4.0 of

else (what I'd copied within Aqua)!)
Did you try the suggested workaround? Just copy something in a
native app first.
I haven't looked into this issue yet, but it seems like an easy
enough workaround.
I still have problems with reliability of X11.app copy/paste; if I use
an xterm as an intermediate it always works, but to/from X11 emacs
(local or remote) is spotty, and remote Gtk+ apps seem always require
me to use an intermediate xterm. Interestingly, neither xcutsel nor
xclipboard help; I've used those to work around various (non-Apple-
related) X11 cut/paste issues before.
It's consistent enough for me to be able to say that it doesn't matter
whether I cut/paste from something else first.
