Subject: Copying text from emacs to another application using M-w

When I copy region of text using M-w
I'm able to paste it in Emacs just fine using C-y. However, when I
try to paste it in another application it doesn't seem to have been
copied for use outside of emacs. For this to work, I need to select
the region I wish to copy and choose copy from the menu. Is there
anyway to get it to copy for use outside emacs by using just M-w and
not having to use the menu? I'm using Emacs 23 on Ubuntu 9.04.
Thanks!
