On the off chance this might be it- klipper might be full, and configured wrong. It should be set at 25 items in history (the max), and the save contents on exit unchecked. At least that's the way I like it. I've had c/p stop working when klipper became full- when I cleared the history, all was well. Klipper is where your copied items are stored in a buffer, to be pasted later. If the buffer is full, you can't copy anything else to it. I'd like to know how to get the "25 item" limit increased. (OK- just found it- /home/ wrc/.kde3.1/share/config/klipperrc). However, your copy/paste problem might be something else. Robert Crawford
