I'm running FC6, and gnome. Experiment: Open firefox, highlight something, paste it in evolution using middle click, and it works. Close firefox, paste again using middle click, and something else was pasted. Ctrl-c/v method also appears to be the same. Firefox was installed from livna, so it may not compile right for my system? Copying form Gedit to Evolution, the middle click approach exhibits the same problem, whereas, the ctrl-c/v works even after Gedit is closed.
