[Bug 67394] Clipboard does not work

[markba]

Public bug reported:

After working with Edgy RC1 for certain period of time, using clipboard functions (Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V), it just stopped working:
(1) selecting text in gedit was not possible anymore; at first, I thought it was purely visual, but hitting Ctrl-C did not have any effect (seeable with Ctrl-V)
(2) selecting text from an about window did give me visual feedback that text was selected, but when pasting that text with Ctrl-V (after copying with Ctrl-C) revealed that the text was NOT copied.

Note: when hitting Ctrl-V, it pasted a PREVIOUS text, so it appears that
the copy-mechanism is broken. A reboot, just like in Windows :-( solves
the problem.

Detected on Edgy RC1.

** Affects: gnome-desktop (Ubuntu)
