Description Fredi 2015-08-19 17:19:30 UTC 
At first, i'm not 100% sure this is only a konsole bug as even alt+tab stops working, but the selection problem happens only with konsole, so I'm filing it here.

This bug was reported to the Fedora bugtracker too, there's some more info in there too:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1254254

but no reply after 2 days.

Steps to reproduce:

Keep konsole open, launching clusterssh with a cluster (so it opens some xterms).
Do a copy and paste operation in one of the xterms opened by clusterssh. From now on on konsole X11 selection and kde (right click menu) copy and paste will stop working.


This happens with other randoom non KDE X11 applications, but that's the easiest way for me to 100% reproduce this bug.

In the xsession-error.log, when C&P does not work i see:

QXcbClipboard::setMimeData: Cannot set X11 selection owner
QXcbClipboard::setMimeData: Cannot set X11 selection owner
QXcbClipboard::setMimeData: Cannot set X11 selection owner



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open konsole
2. launch clusterssh (http://sourceforge.net/projects/clusterssh/) with a cluster (the command assumes you have clusterssh installed and sshd enabled on your local machine):
    cssh localhost
3. do a random copy and paste in the newly opened xterm

In my ~/.xsession-errors i see:

QXcbClipboard::setMimeData: Cannot set X11 selection owner

during selection on konsole while it isn't working




Actual Results:  
selection copy and paste does not work anymore on konsole.

As a tangent in my case even alt+tab stops working but a nohup kwin --replace restores alt+tab so this i think should be a kwin related issue, just mentioning this for completeness.



Expected Results:  
X11 copy and paste to work correctly regardless of applications.

Just ask for any more info needed, or if it's not a kde / konsole problem please point me where to file a bug report in case.


As a "workaround" for now i'm using gnome teminal, though it's more than 10 years that i use konsole daily for hours and I'm used to it.

Thanks in advance,
Frederik

Ok, after ~3/4 other fedora 22 kde binary releases (the list of my installed packages follows) the result is the same.

This are konsole logs wen the problem happens:

$ konsole --nofork 
QCoreApplication::arguments: Please instantiate the QApplication object first

QXcbClipboard::setMimeData: Cannot set X11 selection owner

Here's what i see in my xsession-errors (note the cssh launching that provokes the bug, actually launching cssh server where server is a cluster made of server1 and server2):

Other datapoints:

* When this happens kwin too starts behaving quite strange, seems dead. I cant move windows and window switching with alt-tab does not work, the only way to recover it is a kwin --replace & (i even made an alias for that as i'm using it after each cssh session)

* I have a dual monitor setup, not sure this matters


Now, is there something else i can do to troubleshot? Can you suggest me to test something? Is this bug report even interesting?

BTW I have reported this on Fedora's bugtracker too: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1254254
Comment 3 Fredi 2015-10-01 14:39:41 UTC 
Another update, this is definitely a duplicate of a kwin bug:

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=348569

Thanks to Rex Dieter for the support.

This bug has had its resolution changed, but accidentally has been left in NEEDSINFO status. I am thus closing this bug and setting the status as RESOLVED to reflect the resolution change.
