the big opps
Hi Pete,
1. not every oops might be related to each other, with such a basic attitude you make an unbiased search for errors more difficult.
2. If there really was a "big oops" (however, I am sceptical about this) and you now suffer from one issue after another, consider to deliver the horse from it's pain with a valiant shot and ride in a new horse.
I used to be able to C&P from xterm to gui term to term with the mouse now it does not work at all
What am i mising
I searched your emails and read that you are using KDE. Is this correct?Do I understand correctly, that you want middle-click paste?
If you don't mention this, we might give you a hint, that is null and void, because something else does override those settings.
If I google for kde middle click paste the first hit is the Manjaro Linux Forum. FWIW Manjaro is based on Arch Linux.
A few hits below, but still under the top hits are links to the Arch Linux Forums. Some users prefer to disable the option, but it might be helpful to even read those hints.
If I use DDG to search for kde middle click paste the realated hit are the Arch Linux Forums.
Disclaimer, I didn't read any of those threads! Consider to take a look at related threads and then either post how you solved the issue or post what you already tried, that still doesn't work.
Regards, Ralf
