There's something that always bugged me a bit with the clipboard.  I

when I open an application, select some text in it, then copy it to the

paste the text from the clipboard into somewhere else, there's nothing
to copy.  At the moment I closed the application I copied the text from,
the clipboard contents die.

This is surprising, since "copying to the clipboard", at least on every
other OS I'm using, really means "copying".  Even if the application the
text came from goes away, the copied text is still in the clipboard.  Is
this a bug?

Sounds like your session is not running klipper.

Hm, indeed. I didn't even know that this is required. I had disabled klipper long time ago, because it puts an icon in the systray, which is very annoying. I suppose there's no way to tell it not to do that?
