has anyone here installed a fresh Debian distribution, and then installed xemacs ? I just installed a fresh copy of Debian Sarge and am running xemacs-21.4.15-gnome-mule. I have two xemacs frames open editing two different documents. I remember I was able to copy and paste before between two xemacs frames, but now when I select some text with my mouse in one frame, click copy, and go to the other xemacs frame to paste by pressing Ctrl-Y or clicking Paste, I get:
Kill ring is empty or there is no clipboard selection Does anyone know how I get these two xemacs frames to recognize what's being copied or cut in the other frame ? I emailed the xemacs-mule list, the debian-desktop list and also posted this question to comp.emacs.xemacs: http://groups.google.com/groups?q=copy+paste+debian&hl=en&lr=&group=comp.emacs.xemacs&selm=332853b8.0410121404.1b7383e4%40posting.google.com&rnum=1 I did what the guys suggested, using Ctrl-Insert and Shift-Insert and my first and second mouse buttons, to no avail. The option does not show up in the other xemacs frame for me to paste. I seem to be able to copy from xemacs and paste in firefox or gedit or gnome-terminal, just for some reason I can no longer paste to another xemacs frame, which to me is bizarre. I have reproduced this behavior on Debian testing as well. I am using kernel version 2.6.7-1-386
