I have been cuting and pasting with mandrake. Sometimes I have to use
Ctrl + c and Ctrl +v, and sometimes I have to middle click the mouse and
use the menu, other times I use the mozilla menu. I have used it with
the 2.4 kernel and now with the 2.6 kernel. I past to Open Office or
KOffice. I would have to say that occasionally (about 10%) of the time
it just doesn't work. But 90% is fine with me. Although I do have
Klipper on the task bar and I usually open what ever program I want to
paste to before I try to paste it. Hope this helps, Moe
