It's a little hard to tell on my end, as I am running a backport of
emacs22 on Debian Etch, (though I still have emacs21 installed).
ii emacs21 21.4a+1-3etch1
The GNU Emacs editor
ii emacs21-bin-common21.4a+1-3etch1
I can confirm that feisty emacs21 has trouble pasting text copied from
e.g. firefox and that emacs-snapshot seems to behave better.

This problem reappears with emacs21 in Feisty, with:
(setq x-select-enable-clipboard t)
I then installed emacs-snapshot, and the copying between emacs and other
GNOME apps began working again.

Can you try this hint from the EmacsWiki?
snip
X11 Copy Paste to/from Emacs:
Emacs 21.2.1 newer:
(setq x-select-enable-clipboard t)
See also http://www.oreillynet.com/lpt/wlg/6162 which suggests
(setq x-select-enable-clipboard t) ; as above
(setq interprogram-paste-function
Let us know if that fixes it. Also, if you could add that to the response as
well.
/snip
I meant, if you could add i386/amd64 to your response as well. :P
thanks,

This is fixed by adding:
; fix the clipboard with X11
(setq x-select-enable-clipboard t)
to your .emacs.
It fixes it in Debian Sid (amd64)... I have updated the report on
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=378234
to reflect this information.

Edgy: cannot paste text in Gnome
After upgrading Ubuntu, this strange behaviour has finished. Now I can
correctly paste from Emacs to other Gnome apps. One of the updated
packages has fixed this problem.
