I have Ubuntu 12.10 virtual machine running in QEMU-KVM. Copy/paste between host and vm works fine when using Unity as window manager but not while using Awesome.

What is the difference between those? How can I configure copy/paste to work also in Awesome?

I'm using spice-vdagent (if that is somehow relevant).

This was solved by my friend.

In addition to spice-vdagentd (daemon, started at boot time) also spice-vdagent (client) needs to be started.

Unity had spice-vdagent in startup applications, so added the same command to Awesome startup.
