Clipboard synchronization between wayland and xwayland clients broken #6132
Comments
Can confirm. I cannot copy/paste between Firefox and electron apps like Discord, Steam, and Obsidian. System info
|
I think Varxy mentioned that Copy/Paste will be broken until the xwayland rewrite is completed. |
I suppose this can be closed if he wants in that case, since it's a planned issue. |
we can keep it to avoid dupes, I'll just link 6086 to this |
Things seem to work for me with XClip? https://github.com/astrand/xclip Try using this as a workaround for now. |
Would i have to change the keybindings for copy & paste then aswell? And does XClip work with wayland applications? |
Little script I'm using for syncing clipboard as workaround
|
I have simply built and am sitting on the commit before the rewrites (4cdddcf) until the xwayland rewrite is merged. |
Sorry for the dumb question, but how do I clone the repo b4 the commits? |
When this is resolved and you want to go back to using your regular installation method (I assume AUR -git), just run |
@Ghosthree3 Thanks. Had figured it out already by searching the web ;-) . Thanks for the idea nd everyone for this grt project |
does anyone know how to pin the commit for nix flake inputs? hyprland = {
url = "git+https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/?ref=refs/heads/main&rev=4cdddcfe466cb21db81af0ac39e51cc15f574da9&submodules=1";
}; but it fails
UPDATE: hyprland = {
type = "git";
url = "https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland";
submodules = true;
rev = "4cdddcfe466cb21db81af0ac39e51cc15f574da9";
}; it was able to build (with some errors which, i believe, is due to submodules = true)

@jfvillablanca that looks like an unreliable internet connection. git clone is not resilient to connection resets.

I'm not precisely an expert here, but just in case this is useful for somebody: As a researcher, when I need further compatibility with MS Office, I use WPS Office and this issue was bothering me for quite a while. I found the forked script and I modified it a little bit so it's completely functional (I'm not sure why I was getting lots of new line characters when copy-pasting with the original): https://gist.github.com/andriandreo/cc48e2d67c389919e18c54429d768c1f |
The issue is closed, but as far as I can tell the issue is still there in 0.41.0. |
there already is an issue open #6247 concerning a specific subset of xwayland applications |
This is happening to me since v0.41.0 ._. |

Description
Trying to copy/paste data between wayland and xwayland clients is broken as of 121d3a7.
An error can be observed from xwayland clients when trying to paste something copied from a wayland client if the xwayland clipboard is empty.
But if there exists something on the xwayland clipboard (because of a copy from an existing xwayland client) that will be pasted and no error given.
When pasting into a wayland client, the last copy from a wayland client is used (if it still exists), regardless of the existence of a valid xwayland clipboard or not.
There was one time when playing around copying and pasting I managed to crash Hyprland. I think while attempting to close an xwayland window with something on its clipboard, which would hang invisibly.
How to reproduce
Open two windows, one under wayland, one under xwayland, and try to copy paste between them.
I was testing by opening a terminal (
kitty
) under wayland, then using it to load an x11 copy of itself (kitty -o linux_display_server=x11
) and trying to copy paste between them.First noticed because I was unable to copy paste things from my browser into Discord.
