Hello,
i installed the -33 Version and the -clipboard feature doesn't work.
I started with xwin +kb -xkbmap de -query murpel -from 192.168.1.2 -fp
tcp/192.168.1.1:7100 -dpi 100 -once -clipboard
What's different here? Xwinclip still works but needs -ac.
Thanks, the log file was very useful.
What is happening is that we have to wait to start the clipboard client
until XDM has finished killing any connected clients. There is not a
well-defined event that I can use to track this, so I have to try to
find an artifact of the startup process that works with most XDM/KDM/GDM
implementations.
The current triggers I am using work fine with my KDM implementation,
but they appear not to work with your XDM implementation. So, I will
have to tweak the triggers a bit to see if I can make them more robust.
Thanks for the report. Patiently wait for 4.3.0-34.
Thanks,
Harold
