Rdesktop no longer cuts and pastes

mikjik

I have had no issues with cut n' paste between my Gentoo box and my Windows XP box in rdesktop. Rdesktop worked fine both ways.

For whatever reason, it's broken now. :cry:

I don't know what broke it since I haven't done any big changes on either box -- unless one of the recent Windows Updates security fixes borked something.

I'm running rdesktop 1.3.1. Kernel 2.6.5-mm6.

Any ideas?

I just upgraded my kernel from 2.6.5-mm6 to plain ol' 2.6.6, and now cut and paste works. I don't think it was merely the reboot of my Gentoo nor Win XP boxes because I reboot them frequently. (My Gentoo box is a laptop and goes home with me at the end of each day.)

Other than the kernel update, I did nothing else and cut/paste work again. It seems to be working fine, FWIW.
