Are you on wayland?

[gloatoriginal]

I'm not sure I fully understand what that means? I ssh into my linux computer from windows 10.
I havn't installed anything called wayland manually. I updated to Buster and tested right after update

[Bios-Marcel]

This won't work anyway, because it will copy the cobtent to your remotemachine clipboard.

[Bios-Marcel]

The workaround is to disable mouse support, hit ctrl-b, select the message in your terminal via text selection and copy how you'd normaly copy

[Bios-Marcel]

However, I can't do much with "exit status 1". I am assuming that it can't find x11 / wayland utils for copying, because you are running on a headless machine. You need to have either xclip or wl-copy on your machine. If you forward the X-Session / Wayland session to your local machine, then theoretically you could be able to have a shared clipboard, not sure though.

no worries, I thought about the goofiness more once i remembered I was ssh into the machine.
