unable to copy and paste across apps
I was unable to copy 4 lines of text from an error message file in Kedit and
paste it into Netscape. Using netscape to access yahoo mail, I was creating
a message to send via yahoo mail. Anyone know why? what I don't have
installed or enabled?

My machine is SuSE 7.2pro. Full installation of everything. I thought there
was some equivalent of win32's clipboard active in kde2.

Finally got yahoo to send the errors as an attachment. First I had to enable
java script in netscape. I had it disabled cause I just ~hate~ java stuff as
a browser user. You can be working along and something in the java program
will re-select something you've just de-selected, or change your city,state
selection without you knowing it. And slow to respond to keystrokes, forgot
that. yeck. Still would like to know why copy and paste fails.
