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
