Dear newbie list reader, I'm fairly new to Mandrake, adjusting from having used RH for several years. Under RH and KDE, I'm very used to the X Windows cut and paste feature (just select it with the mouse pointer, then press both buttons on my MS mouse to paste it into another window, field, etc.). This feature doesn't work under MDK/KDE. I do alot of work using KDE's Konsole. When I press both buttons, a pop-up menu appears rather than pasting the selected text. If I try to paste to another application nothing happens. If I try to first copy like MS Windows has you do (^C) then nothing happens. Well, in Konsole, it aborts the current line and gives you another prompt. Is there an easy to get this to work. I really rely on cut/paste *alot*. Thanks, in advance. Bruce -- Bruce W.
