emacs 24 and vnc not working

After a lot of poking around, my basic conclusion is emacs 24 cut and paste 
does not do something that a vnc server needs but emacs 22.3 did.

I've tried two difference vnc servers and three different vnc viewers and all 
exhibit the same characteristics.

I can copy from emacs using M-w and paste it into an xterm on the same Xvnc 
server.  But I can not paste it into anything else such as a Mac application.

With an xterm or emacs 22.3 on the same Xvnc server, it works fine.

I can verify that the clipboard and primary selection are both being updated -- 
it just isn't working with the Xvnc server.

I hope someone can help me out 'cause I'm not making much progress on this.

I also have not figured out how to copy from the xterm into emacs but I figure 
that is pilot error or a config setting.

Thank you,
Perry
