Re: Copy-Paste from Firefox 88.0.1 not working properly on Ubuntu 21.04 (Hirsute Hippo)
I noticed I have similar issues while trying to copy from the terminal. Highlight then Ctrl-Shift-C. Ctlr-Shift-V works in the terminal and pastes it, but Ctrl-V in other applications freeze the other app for a few seconds and the paste does not work. Earlier I tried a reboot. It worked for a while then it stopped. Yesterday I tried logout/login and it has been working since then. Now my guess is that there might be some key combination that starts this behaviour. Really strange. Gabor On Tue, May 18, 2021 at 8:50 AM Michael Shiloh wrote: > I'm also on 21.04.

Re: Copy-Paste from Firefox 88.0.1 not working properly on Ubuntu 21.04 (Hirsute Hippo)
I'm also on 21.04. Copying from FF to a terminal and to email seems to work fine. Probably unrelated, but I first upgraded from 20.10 to 21.04. Everything seemed fine until I tried to use my Arduino, and found that the serial ports no longer worked. After some discussion with Arduino and Ubuntu forums I decided to do a fresh install of 21.04, and now serial ports work. (I would have liked to understand this problem but I'm on a deadline to get some Arduino work done). Like I said, probably unrelated. But if you get desperate try a fresh install (I know, that's a real kludge, like power cycling to see if a problem goes away) On Tue, May 18, 2021 at 9:44 AM Gabor Szabo wrote: > Hi, > > A few days ago I upgraded from 20.10 to 21.04.

Copy-Paste from Firefox 88.0.1 not working properly on Ubuntu 21.04 (Hirsute Hippo)
Hi, A few days ago I upgraded from 20.10 to 21.04. Since then I have problems with Copy-paste. At first it seemed to be randomly not working, but after some experimentation I think it does not work when I try to Copy from Firefox to anything else which is not Firefox. (And to be even stranger it seems to work sometimes from Firefox to other apps as well, but only a few times and then it stops working.) I also posted it on AskUbuntu, but so far no good responses. https://askubuntu.com/questions/1338970/copy-paste-from-firefox-88-0-1-not-working-properly-on-ubuntu-21-04-hirsute-hip Have any of you encountered it? Do you have a similar environment and it works for you? Gabor ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
