I'd like to announce 2.3.2_beta1. This release is not quite feature- complete with everything that I want to appear in 2.3.2, but it's at a good point to release for general testing and feedback since we have some considerable upates. Major changes include (full ChangeLog below): Increased support for tablets in GDK based apps (Gimp, Inkscape, etc) Improved clipboard synchronization - The copy-on-select option is not yet implemented - If you have a custom ~/.xinitrc, you may need to edit it to run xpbproxy. This will not be the case for the final release. Improved Spaces interaction - Ctrl-arrow, Ctrl-num, and "dragging off screen" now works with quartz-wm Possible GLX stereo mode - defaults write org.x.X11 enable_stereo -boolean YES - Experimental, but please test and give feedback http://static.macosforge.org/xquartz/downloads/X11-2.3.2_beta1.pkg Thanks, Jeremy == Changes in 2.3.2 == * All changes in X112.3.1 2.3.1 plus: * app: * quartz-wm * Cleaned up parenting of dialog and utility windows * Respond to new AppleWMReloadPreferences notification rather than just SIGHUP * space-change shortcuts and dragging work to move windows to other spaces * Fixed bug with --no-pasteboard option that didn't completely disable it (it still grabbed PRIMARY in activate/deactivate) * defaults to --no-pasteboard when the server uses version 1.1 and greater of applewmproto * xterm 237 * lib: * fontconfig 2.6.0 * libpng 1.2.32 * Note that our previous version was 1.2.26 and was not affected by CVE-2008-3964. * libXau 1.0.4 * libX11 1.1.5 * mesa-7.2 * For libGLU, libglut, glxgears, glxinfo * pixman 0.12.0 * Xplugin * Cleaned up parenting of dialog and utility windows * proto: * applewmproto 1.1.0 * AppleWMReloadPreferences notification * server: * Xquartz fixes from xorg-server-1.4.2-apple18 * Send out AppleWMReloadPreferences notification to tell quartz- wm and xpbproxy to reload preferences * Fix a crash in RootlessNativeWindowMoved when compiled for 64bit * Fix a possible crash on startup due to TSM not being thread safe * Added new preferences UI for xpbproxy options * Disabled 8bit visuals while in TrueColor mode since they don't work yet * Tabblet support improved for GDK-based applications (Gimp, Inkscape, etc) * enable_stereo defaults option should work for enabling stereo GLX visuals * Massive update of proxying between OSX pasteboard and X11 clipboard/primary buffers * Image support * Unicode support * Preference options available in the X11 Preferences window

Jeremy, I've been using this version since release and its very stable for me, with no obvious issues so far. Taking out the 8bit Visual solved my pgplot problem, and I've been doing as much cutting and pasting as possible (mostly between Excel and X11) with no issues. The spaces improvements are also very welcome. Thanks! Jamie
Hi, I don't now if I am doing something wrong but copy/paste does not work for me on my G4 laptop. I tried it both with and without xpbproxy. With xpbproxy running, even command-v and command-c don't work. -John
cmd-v should never work. There's no way to use it in X11.app, and it's not an option in the edit menu. Check X11's preferences to make sure you have clipboard settings enabled. Check 'ps x' to see if xpbproxy is even running. On Oct 10, 2008, at 23:13, John Koren wrote:

What I meant was that normally to copy text from, e.g. xterm or rxvt, to a MacOS application, e.g. Word, one would do command-c in xterm and command-v in Word. This did not seem work when xpbproxy was running, but now it does. In my X11.app I have all check marks related to pasteboard turned on. Since I have my own .xinitrc, I added the following to it: exec /usr/X11/bin/xpbproxy & exec /usr/bin/quartz-wm This results in a error message " A clipboard manager is already running. pbproxy will not sync clipboard to pasteboard." being written in the system log. I then tried: xec /usr/X11/bin/xpbproxy & exec /usr/bin/quartz-wm --no-pasteboard which, got rid of the message but copy/paste does not work as I would expect it. What I was expecting that selecting the text in rxvt would automaticly copy the text to the pasteboard so I could paste it in Word. This does not happen. -John

--no-pasteboard does nothing on 2.3.1 since it defaults to --no- pasteboard. It shouldn't have any effect. Plus quartz-wm doesn't grab CLIPBOARD_MANAGER. Do you have xclipboard running?
