I'am interested since still = suffering from the same problem. >=20 > Alexandre Well, (in a way) I'm glad I'm not the only one with this problem. I have it= with GNU Emacs 24.3.1 on Fedora 19 and Gnome and enquired about it on this= group on 2013-11-21 ("Intermittent problems with cut/copy and paste (using= CUA keys) between Emacs and other programs") where I asked how to go about= tracking down the bug, but got no response to that. After Emacs has been running for a few days the problem starts to occur and= I have both the OP's problem of Emacs failing to paste from the system cli= pboard and the reverse problem of Emacs failing to place cut/copied items i= nto the system clipboard. I've found that I don't have to restart Emacs to clear the problem; I can c= lear it (for a while) with a few copy/paste operations within Emacs. Of cou= rse that barely mitigates the problem. As I use Emacs to compose emails / news posts that and then have to be past= ed into web-based news/mail interfaces, this bug is a frequent annoyance. I'd very much like to hear anyone's suggestions for tracking down the cause= of the issue. N. Jackson.
