Just select a word or phrase and select copy from the apps menu and try to paste it into a Mac native application, like Text Edit. I did not try an image, just text.
This only happens at first boot and never again no matter how often I were to close and re-open XQuartz. But once I have to reboot, I have to go toggle 'sync clipboard' again.
Using terminal, I tried to toggle 'sync clipboard' using defaults, but this did not make a difference.
The is a new install on a new HDD. I have other installs of 10.6.x where I don't have this problem. I have friends/acquaintances who have this problem too, but they are just 'living with it'.
I mainly use XQuartz with WINEd applications but this also occurs in xterm too.
