You might reconsider your choice of function for the middle button. The 
KDE/Gnome method of cutting and pasting between apps is the middle mouse 
button. Ctrl C, Ctrl X and Ctrl V work within apps on content moved within 
those apps, but I've found that between most apps you must use the middle 
button.

By the way, try running klipper. Doing so often improves your cut and paste 
experience.
