[gentoo-user] xfreerdp clipboard not working

[Grant Edwards <grant.b.edwards@gmail.com>]

I've been using rdesktop for several years and have always been able
to use Ctrl-V on the Windows desktop to paste stuff from the X11
clipboard.

Now I need to switch to xfreerdp because rdesktop doesn't implement a
new enough version of the RDP protocol.

I can't figure out how to get the clipboard to work in xfreerdp.

I start it, and it says it's loading the clipboard plugin

$ xfreerdp +clipboard /u:xxxxxx /p:yyyyyy /v:N.N.N.N
loading channel cliprdr
connected to N.N.N.N:3389

But no ctrl-V never pastes anything from the X11 clipboard the way it
always did with rdesktop.

All I can find in Google is a bunch of people talking about which
command-line syntax to use to get it to load the clibrdr plugin, and
that doesn't seem to be the problem.

Can anybody loan me a hint?
