said Nick Koretsky: | You need klipper running and set to sync selection and clipboard. Well, that puzzles me, because I'm fairly certain I didn't have it running on my previous install and was running 14.04 atop ubuntu 12.04, and it worked as it always has. In fact, I've made a point of not running Klipper at all, because I've always found Klipper to be an answer in search of a solution. For as long as I've run Linux, which is 20 years, so it predates KDE 1.0 and Klipper (which wasn't in KDE 1.x at all), selected text is copied by a center (or both-button) click. Until this install on my machine now. So I'm puzzled and a little alarmed to learn that Klipper must be running for the ordinary X-windows copy/paste function, which has worked since Looking Glass desktop on Caldera 1.2 (and other desktops of the time as well). I'm thinking there's something going on here, unless there's supposed to be a little stub of Klipper running invisibly all the time, in which case this is the first I've heard of it. -- dep The shortest distance between you and playing great acoustic guitar: the great new instructional DVDs from Marjorie Thompson, available at www.MarjorieThompson.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: trinity-users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: trinity-users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Read list messages on the web archive: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/ Please remember not to top-post: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/#top-posting
