no selection: CLIPBOARD with org-remember-apply-template

[Matt and Lale Lovell]

Hello,

I'm attempting to copy my work setup for org-mode and remember at
home.  Both are using XEmacs 21.4.21 and the same ~/.xemacs/init.el
for requiring packages and setting customizations.

Using either org-6.10c or org-6.13pre4, I get an error after selecting
the type of note ("t", "j", or "i", based upon the sample provided in
the org-mode manual):

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "no selection" CLIPBOARD)
  get-selection-internal(CLIPBOARD STRING)
  get-selection(CLIPBOARD nil)
  get-selection-foreign(CLIPBOARD)
  get-clipboard-foreign()
  current-kill(0)
  org-remember-apply-template()
  run-hooks(org-remember-apply-template)
  remember-mode()
  (let* ((annotation ...) (buf ...)) (run-hooks (quote remember-before-remember-hook)) (funcall (if remember-in-new-frame ... ...) buf) (if remember-in-new-frame (set-window-dedicated-p ... t)) (remember-mode) (when (= ... ...) (when initial ...) (setq remember-annotation annotation) (when remember-initial-contents ...) (when ... ...) (setq remember-initial-contents nil) (goto-char ...)) (message "Use C-c C-c to remember the data."))
  remember(nil)
  org-do-remember()
  org-remember(nil)
  call-interactively(org-remember)


I thought I had things working before, but I'm at a loss to track down
what's triggering the above error.  I don't think it's any bug in
org-mode, but perhaps an interaction with something else loaded in
XEmacs? 

I welcome any suggestions or recommendations.

Many thanks,
  Matt

This turned out to be an interaction with improperly installed
byte-code for vm (viewmail) 8.0.12.  Removing and re-installing vm
resolved the problem.

Sorry for the noise,
  Matt

Correction...

The presence of contents from TODO.org in the kill ring recorded in my
~/.session appears to be the actual culprit.  I'm currently running:

  ;;; session.el --- use variables, registers and buffer places across sessions

  ;; Copyright 1996-1999, 2001-2003 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
  ;;
  ;; Author: Christoph Wedler <wedler@users.sourceforge.net>
  ;; Version: 2.2

I'll see if there's a newer version and/or anything special which
needs to be done for session/remember-mode interactions.
