I just wanted to tell you, that I solved the problem now. Starting with |
| 21 |
the answer that the clipboard in KDE is configurable to use different |
| 22 |
buffers, I changed this setting and it worked then in KDE. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
After that I tried to work out, why it didn't work in fvwm over then, |
| 25 |
but I simply couldn't reproduce this behaviour. My apologies for the |
| 26 |
wrong starting point in the discussion. The problem was simply a KDE |
| 27 |
problem and nothing else. |
