copy/paste problems

Hi,

it seems that it is not possible to copy/paste data to or from chat/im to/from other applications. Several users mentioned that in group IM, but I don't have the specs for their systems.

I've been unable to paste into notecards, or copy from chat windows. Using edit->Copy, Ctrl+c, or the Linux standard select and middle mouse-click. Just doesn't work.

It seems anything with floating text has the floating text repeated, see screenshot.

* Linux Distribution (Debian, Redhat, etc)
Slackware 10-ish

* Desktop Environment (Gnome, KDE, etc)
KDE

* Kernel info (uname -a)
Linux cygnus 2.6.10-rc3 #4 SMP Thu Dec 9 18:21:06 CST 2004 i686 unknown unknown GNU/Linux

* X version (from xdpyinfo .. do not spam with all of its output)
X.Org 6.8.1

* Video driver (from your xorg.conf file, or from glxinfo .. again do not spam)
Driver 2.0.1 NVIDIA 81.74

* Video card model & amount of video memory
nVidia Go 6800 PCI-X 256MB

* CPU info (from /proc/cpuinfo... vendor_id, model name, cpu MHz, cache size)
vendor_id : GenuineIntel
cpu family : 15
model : 3
model name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.60GHz
stepping : 4
cpu MHz : 3602.169
cache size : 1024 KB

* Amount of physical and virtual memory (from top)
Mem: 1031752k total, 716120k used, 315632k free, 10052k buffers
Swap: 2097136k total, 51388k used, 2045748k free, 171180k cached

It looks like much of the cut & paste functionality is also not implemented, yet.

I will add it to known issues.
