I would like to enable the mouse middle-button to paste what is
selected. It worked fine before, but not now. I do not know whether
the cause is that the mouse is a different one or some configuration
is missing.

If you're using Gnome, then in the mouse settings, you can test it.
Middle click on the circle at the bottom and see if there's a message
that the middle button was clicked.

Thanks, Samuel. I forgot to mention I am using XFCE.

Ok, then I think since XFCE isn't using Wayland yet, you could run "xev" and see if the middle click event shows up. But other than that, I don't know anything about XFCE mouse configuration.

Another way to test which is probably even easier is to install "evtest". When you run it (as root) without any parameters, it will give you a list of input devices and you can pick your mouse and it will show you the events as they happen.
