copy and paste does not always work
This seems to be a consistent problem. When one copies using right mouse click and paste using the same some times the paste option is gone, that means the data being copied has gone ( not stored on clipboard). I have noticed that if you keep the file that you are copying from open and past elsewhere then it works most of the time.
Like copy text from the net to openoffice ( I am generating a Ubuntu tweak file of all the useful bits that worked for me so that if I have to start from scratch I do not have to trawl the net again). This has been frustrating when I have closed say Firefox after doing a highlight and copy, then close the browser and try to paste in the open office file... pasted data gone?????? any ideas.... seems clipboard is not working as well as it could... any ideas any one... thanking you in advance for your help.
