                    Unfortunately I updated this morning again and still
                    have the problem.  Not sure if it's related to xfce
                    but I believe it was doing it initially with Gnome
                    also?  It's a nuisance because I have to click to
                    bring up a copy/paste menu and work with that
                    cumbersom method!

                    Thanks for the response, at least I know I'm not alone.

Not seeing and have not seen the problem here. I get the digest form of the list so I used x-paste for the author line and the subject to format this reply. This is on my desktop (Gnome, nv video, "normal" mouse with scroll wheel). I also checked on my laptop (Gnome, radeon video, synaptics touch pad) and it works fine there too.

Are you starting gpm and is it still running? I vaguely remember that this is provided by the "text mouse." You might see if you can highlight and paste without X.

Cheers,
Dave
