Can anyone tell me if the speakup mark-cut-paste feature still uses the same buffers as the mouse and gpm driver? Quite a while ago that was the case. When you had marked and cut a block from the screen, you could right-click to paste it, just like using the speakup paste command. I think my mouse died, and I'm looking for a definitive test. I'm trying to get an x window system installed and am ready to test it, but I get no action from the mouse, and neither does it mimic the speakup paste command in text mode. So would someone with a recent speakup and a connected mouse please give that a try for me? Or maybe Kirk or someone has the answer. I am only doing this because I am a nice guy!
