Just a question: Copy/Paste with VNC #17

Closed PaulaDiord closed 11 years ago

PaulaDiord commented 11 years ago

I am using TightVNC from Win7 to customize the DeployLinux. To install software apt-get, to copy settings etc it would be very handy to use copy/paste from to the DeployLinux. Does anybody know how to achive this?

Is there a a setting in the VNCserver in DeployLinux? Or a setting in the used Linux-Desktop? Or a switch in TightVNC on Win7?

Install autocutsel:

apt-get install autocutsel

Run it:

autocutsel -fork

Thank you again - this worked for me. Again I would suggest to install this within the LinuxDeploy-installation. The textbased ssh/putt/mc in Debian already allow copy/paste.

It would be a great help to have copy/paste in Windows/Desktop-Managers also out-of-the-box.
