how to enable VNC Clipboard

May 22, 2018 1 Replies

I am running a VNC server on Linux version 3.18.11-v7 on a Pi and using VNC Viewer for Google Chrome on a W10 laptop as a client.



The server is started by keying: - vncserver at a command prompt and setting a password with :- vncpasswd



The client connects successfully and everything works well with the exception of the clipboard. Any attempt to copy and paste between the two machines is ignored.



Is there a setting somewhere to enable the clipboard to work?

Thanks to everyone who replied The solution appears to be to install Stretch.
