I experience this as well since upgrading to Lion. Specifically, I find that
copying both ways works for a while, then copying from X11 to to OSX (but not
vice versa) stops working. Restarting the X server usually fixes this. I
thought it might be related to my use of klipper, but I haven't nailed anything
down.
I have to taken to simply pasting via middle click into pbcopy on the X11 side
in order to get into the Aqua pasteboard.

In 1997 a group of programmers started writing a desktop environment to fix a
travesty they didn't create. Their program promptly found its way onto un*x
systems everywhere. Today, still opposed by a software monopolist, they survive
as soldiers of fortune. If you share their vision, if you know you can help,
and if you can connect to internet, maybe you can join... the K-Team.
