more like not capturing the copy command either from mouse or copy+c from within ZED

I am also facing this issue. How to solve this.

[domenkozar]

Using vim mode y and p also don't work.

Please run zed: copy system specs to clipboard as requested by the issue template.
I am not able to reproduce on my Linux machine, so I'm curious if there's a common pattern amongst those impacted.

Would anyone be willing to previous Zed releases to see if they can identify when it broke? Or perform the git bisect to track down a specific commit?

[domenkozar]

0.161.1 works for me, 0.162.3 doesn't.

[notpeter]

0.161.1 works for me, 0.162.3 doesn't.

Here's the diff: v0.161.1...v0.162.3. Anyone down to do the git bisect?

[kgritesh]

is there a easy way to downgrade to previous version.

[notpeter]

is there a easy way to downgrade to previous version.

Yes. Add the following to your settings.json:

  "auto_update": false,

Then download from our github releases and follow the linux: downloading manually instructions in the docs.

Also can people please provide their system specs ('zed: copy system specs to clipboard' from the command palette) if you are impacted by this. I'd like to see if there any common patterns (Wayland vs X11, specific distro, unofficial packages, flatpak, etc).

I seem to be impacted by this issue too (don't mind the zed version, I don't have the latest 0.162.5 re-compiled yet):

Zed: v0.161.0 (Zed Dev 815385cc5f7da8678dc5073e0b483e705f38aa5b)
OS: Linux X11 exherbo unknown
Memory: 62.5 GiB
Architecture: x86_64
GPU: Intel(R) Xe Graphics (TGL GT2) || Intel open-source Mesa driver || Mesa 24.1.5

I'm trying to bisect, but I'm having some troubles pinpointing the right commit. Will try a bit more..
