When I try to copy text from a local emacs session (C-w) to a remote
emacs session running in a gnome-term (over ssh), I find that there is
nothing 'on the clipboard'. I've never really gotten the hang of the
'kill ring' but I can copy and paste in the opposite direction, and I
can copy from galeon/mozilla into a remote emacs running the same
way. Can anyone suggest to me what I might be doing wrong? Thanks

Firstly M-x customize the variable x-select-enable-clipboard to t
Then things will go into the X clipboard. If you do a middle-button
paste it should paste into the remote Emacs (due to the way X works,
not Emacs).
