GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 316211
Clipboard does not remember copied data
Last modified: 2007-01-22 17:05:02 UTC
Distribution/Version: Ubuntu Breezy Like said in this page http://www.gnome.org/start/2.12/notes/en/rnusers.html the bug of the clipboard that does not remember copied data from a closed application is not fixed. I'm using GNOME 2.12.0 on Ubuntu Breezy and if I copy a text from Mozilla Firefox or Abiword, i close the application, and I try to paste in Gedit, the text is not copied and also the "Paste" command is shaded.
I'm using GNOME 2.12.2 on Gentoo. I confirm this problem is not fixed. If I copy a text and close the application, the copied data are lost.
Complex applications like Firefox and Abiword needs to implement the standard. This is not a bug here. Please report the bug against those applications.
