Re: I've lost cut and paste - any ideas why?

I have lost the ability to cut and paste between my slackware Linux
desktop and the Windows 2000 system on which I'm running Cygwin/X.

It used to work until recently and the only thing I can think of that
has changed is that I have upgraded the Slackware from version 9.1 to
version 10 and I'm using gdm rather than xdm on that system.

Is there any configuration in the gdm/xdm area that would affect my
ability to cut and paste?

I have an impression that Slackware 10 introduced UTF-8 locales. That's the first thing I'd check.
