Specifically, it doesn't seem to be possible to paste anything copied from Evolution into an Emacs window and vice versa... but many other apps don't work, either. It doesn't seem to make any difference whether I just use the X clipboard or the Emacs yank command or whatever... just doesn't work. Why's that?
