Description Michael Rothstein 2010-04-22 20:08:31 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.3.5)
Compiler:          Whatever was used in opensuse 11.2 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    openSUSE RPMs

Whenever x2x is active, text selection (specially with mouse) becomes erratic: sometimes it operates as usual; sometimes the selection blinks and the reverse video disappears, when this happens, the text may or may not appear in the klipper buffer; pasting in emacs pastes random buffers, not necessarily the last buffer.
I activate x2x by opening an xterm, ssh'ing to a "remote" computer, and running x2x there. It may be worth mentioning that selection breaks on both computers.

A correction; selection on the target machine only breaks with the source mouse;
selection with the native mouse works fine.

Marking this as resolved unmaintained since this is for Plasma 4.3.5, not 5.15.3
