Hi,

just wanted to ask, whether there is any progress in fixing this
problem... being able to drag and drop would make some tasks so much
quicker... sure you can always use mc on the shell for file management,
but when having a working desktop?

I experience the bug with lxde-openbox (thus also gtk2) running on a
vncserver on ubuntu 11.04

Title:
  GNOME Drag & Drop broken for remote X sessions in Lucid

Status in GTK+ GUI Toolkit:
  New
Status in “gtk+2.0” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Reproducible as follows:

  1. Clean install of Lucid LTS
  2. Apply latest updates (aptitude update && aptitude upgrade)
  3. Install tightvncserver
  4. Start a VNC session as a user (i.e. vncserver).
  5. Connect to the session using a VNC client.
  6. Create two folders on the GNOME desktop (e.g. "untitled folder" and "untitled folder 2")
  7. Attempt to click & drag one of the folders into the other - the operation will fail.
