I'm not sure I understand your setup (is your emacs running inside the gnome-terminal? From where to where are you copy&pasting?). But at least you can copy&paste from/to (non-X)Emacs running in a terminal by installing the `xclip` package via `M-x list-packages` and enabling `xclip-mode`. This of course also requires the `xclip` executable to be installed, but after that C-y and C-w "just work". Stefan
