+## Enable clipboard in pandas on Linux systems
+
+```{admonition} Additional notes
+    This solution works on Linux host systems.
+    It is not required on Windows and won't work on macOS.
+```
+
+To enable `pandas.read_clipboard()` functionality, you need to have `xclip` installed
+(installed in `minimal-notebook` and all the inherited images)
+and add these options when running `docker`: `-e DISPLAY -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix`, i.e.:
+
+```bash
+docker run -it --rm \
+    -e DISPLAY \
+    -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
+    jupyter/minimal-notebook
+```
