I'm running the ssvncviewer against x1vnc, ubuntu on both sides. I've trying to use the F8 menu to copy paste. Neither local to or from remote seem to work. Am I missing something.

I also have problems with ssvncviewer and copy paste as well; some things that sometimes work for me:

  • If copy/paste of text fails from local to remote: F8, then click Clipboard: local -> remote, and then again Ctrl-C local, then switch to remote, then Ctrl-V on remote
  • If copy/paste of text fails from remote to local: exit ssvncviewer, and start it again using the -sendclipboard command line option (see https://helpmanual.io/help/ssvncviewer/ ); switch to remote, Ctrl-C to copy your text; switch to local, Ctrl-V to paste

There might be also problems with the VNC server setup, whatever it is - so you might want to test the same server with multiple other VNC clients, and see how copy/paste goes
