Thanks all for confirming that this Cut/Copy and Paste issue is a common problem and not unique to me. At least now I know that it is not due to some setting mistake I made somewhere. I have been using most of the workarounds suggested, which IS indeed a PITA! I don't know how to characterize this in a repeatable fashion, for a bug report, but I searched and found a similar bug report and added my 2 cents worth as a comment. https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1146018
Been using the same KDE for 15 years -- never had this problem...
(that's KDE3 :)
KDE3 here too, and the problem here is common, particularly trying to paste into a reply input form opened in SeaMonkey { GTK3 :( } on forums.opensuse.org, and from SeaMonkey into KSirc.
The two, different, paste mechanisms are as ancient as X. Well, maybe the second one started with big apps like Netscape having their own private paste system. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.4 x86_64 at Telcontar)
