What is the package that allows copy and paste between windows? I think I need to yum reinstall it. after the 5.6 update I get the copy button when I right click - (for example in thunderbird) put when I then goto a console window and try to right click and paste the paste is grey-ed or ghosted.
Is there a package that controls the clip board or something? Thanks Jerry
Sorry if wasnt explicit. Take an even simpler case I can highlight some text in firefox and right click and copy, I then cannot paste that text into an email with thunderbird. I get the menu item actually to paste but when I select it nothing populates. I am certain I have done this in the past.
ok, clear. Yes that *should* work.
Lets leave the gnome-terminal out of the picture.
So I was wondering the if there is a particular package I could try reinstalling. But it sounds like its "built" into X so I doubt it. Anything else to try before doing a fresh install?
does it work if you log in as another user?
