IIRC I meant that from another emacs session, 'nil' was returned by M-: (x-get-selection 'SECONDARY). > 1) Who owns the selection, i.e. the application copied from? It did not matter whether I was copying from firefox, thunderbird, okular or even another emacs session (these are the softwares I use most of the time). I must admit I probably did not make a conscious test "what if I try copying from there and then pasting in emacs", but I did test a lot of things (although obviously not the right set of things), and would have noticed such an obvious pattern. I hope. Also I found it weird that the timeout problem happens with PRIMARY, SECONDARY and CLIPBOARD, no matter which one I choose. > 2) What desktop environment is used? I use Gnome 2. I have some kde softwares (okular) but I don't run KDE. > Your statement of empty selection above suggests that you do run such > software, possibly without realizing it. Possibly. I looked at: which lists a few of the "klipper equivalents for gnome", and I can find none of these on my system (I'm using Gentoo). Is it worth checking more ? Is there something I can do to check reliably ? -- Nico.
