Hi Mike,
I got exactly the same error under opensuse 11.2 (64bit)+KDE 4.3.4 when I try
to make a new image from the clipboard, I wait some time and then try to empty
the clipboard.

Otherwise IJ usually just shows the message "Opening system clipboard..." and
shows no image and no error.

BTW, I have to press Ctrl+PrtSc to be able to capture the screen, which
appears in Klipper.

It seems that it is more convenient to use the IJ Capture Screen command.

Cheers,
G.
