Its would be a great solution but i think that its a solution that requires
a lot of work, and would be incompatible with other distributions.
Somebody knows the internal structure of XServer to say if i am in a error?

> *** WORKAROUND ***
> ---------------------------
> Install klipper, glipper, parcellite or xfce4-clipman
>
> --------------------------------------------
>
> When I copy (Ctrl + C, or right click and "Copy") text from somewhere and
> after that close the program where it is, the clipboard gets empty.
>
> Steps to reproduce in gedit :
> 1. Pick any text field that supports copying, copy some text.
> 2. Paste into any other text field.
> 3. It works.
> 4. Close the source window or program.
> 5. Paste now does nothing.

> This bug will happen in any application that doesn't comply with the

> http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/ClipboardManager
>
> There was also previous considerations about improving xserver-xorg
> clipboard, which would reduce adaptation work from upstream projects to
> comply with the specification.
