Thank you John,

That would help.  Is it at the Mac system startup or after you have  
just logged in?

Do you have all but the very bottom option selected for your X11  
Pasteboard preferences at startup?  If not, can you tell me what  
preferences you have enabled/disabled?

I need to know the applications involved, and the exact steps.

Also, I plan to do a build sometime tonight or tomorrow with some bug  
fixes for xpbproxy.  I don't think the bugs are related, but the  
preferences weren't working for xpbproxy unless you restart  
xpbproxy/X11.

Thanks,

George
