I hand- compiled GNU Emacs 23.2 and installed it on this viritual machine. The host is a windows xp machine. I have no problem with copy/paste from Ubuntu xterm windows or Ubuntu firefox windows to Windows XP. However, all attempts to copy from GNU Emacs with gtk extensions to Windows XP fail. This screencast documents the copy/paste behavior for all the attempts (xterm, firefox, emacs): http://www.screencast.com/users/terrence_work/folders/Jing/media/8f9ceafe-3429-4df2-8fcb-0ea9aa65589c Please help me!
