It's hazy memory time <g>.  I have always found that while the 
highlight/middle-click thing worked usually, there were some 
occasions where ctrl-c had to be used - sometimes with ctrl-v, and 
sometimes the middle-click worked.  Never did figure out why I had 
these occasional problems, I just got into the habit of going back to 
the terminal and doing ctrl-v if it hadn't worked.

Not much help, sorry
