Re: Long pauses in applications maybe due to gpbs : Timed out waiting for X...

[Fred Kiefer]

I remember this behaviour form way back, but cannot remember seeing it
in recent years. I may just have been lucky, though.
Could you please start gpbs manually and switch on debug output for "Pbs"?
This command should do the trick:
gpbs --GNU-Debug=Pbs --verbose --verbose

Providing verbose twice should given even more output than using in once:-)

The whole pasteboard interaction is a bit of a mess.
