Dear VNC developers, It is also a cut&paste problem. the VNC server is running on a Solaris 8 box, and the client is running on Windows 2000.
The scenario is: 1) start gvim and open a txt file 2) copy some text to Cut_buffer0 (by clicking the button on toolbar) 3) paste in VNC Client. The content is copied to the Windows application. 4) copy another text to Cut_buffer0 in gvim 5) paste again in VNC client. But the content is what you copy at step 2)! 6) start a dtpad in VNC server, and press CTRL-INSERT. You can find that the content of Cut_buffer0 is in fact what you copy at step 4)! However, this content isn't transferred to VNC client. However, the reverse direction of copy&paste (Win -> Solaris) is good. VIM doesn't have this problem. The CTRL-INSERT/SHIFT-INSERT pairs work fine for it. I know that 'vncconfig -poll 1000' can work around gvim's problem (thank Tristan :-). But I am afraid that it isn't a perfect solution, because sometimes I do need to have different Cut_buffer0 and Primary_selection. Since dtpad can get the new content of Cut_buffer0, I guess VNC can do better in monitoring the buffer's change. And, because vim/gvim is an open-source program, it might be easier for VNC developers to find out whether there is a more suitable solution for clipboard. Is it possible to improve the clipboard solution of VNC?
