What's worse, then as me in emacs I did C-y expecting to yank it back. I get 'Memory exhausted' messages and then a C-g causes some kind of emacs blinking state which only a killall -1 emacs could put it out of its misery. I think this is a 'many wide lines into xclip' problem, not a root/user problem, but i didnt check further. emacs-version"21.2.1" -- System Information Debian Release: 3.0 Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux debian 2.4.18-k7 #1 Sun Apr 14 13:19:11 EST 2002 i686 Locale: LANG=zh_TW.Big5, LC_CTYPE=zh_TW.Big5 Versions of packages xclip depends on: ii libc6 2.2.5-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii xlibs 4.1.0-16 X Window System client libraries
