Hi Bob,

Do you remember this fix for copy/paste?
I know it isn't needed yet with the Id because it's not meant to have other apps running, but you cant do any copy/paste unless this fix is installed.
With this in place I've been able to do proper library management now with copy paste for album art from the web.
----------------
Linux has 3 distinct copy/paste buffer systems.
We are starting with the least complex, the same method xterm uses (cut buffers).
To synchronize the primary and clipboard clipboards you can use a little utility autocutsel.
sudo apt-get install autocutsel
then run the synchronizer commands from a terminal or put them in your X startup scripts.
autocutsel -fork &
autocutsel -selection PRIMARY -fork &

I wish I'd know about this a while ago since I prefer using xterm over the various ones that come with kde, etc.
The problem was the lack of ability to copy / paste between xterm and other apps (at least the way my system is configured).

Hendrik:
We should probably try to make copy/paste work in the Linux version without an external utility like this, put it on the long list of things that need doing.

Bob my Id lost its license key today. Was working after I first did the last upgrade and booted from text to GUI, but going back to txt mode 3 this morning I couldn't connect in the car, and also when I fired it up inside tonight. Switched back to GUI tonight and it said license expired. Booted back to txt and still no go. Have just reset with 77. See how I go.

Hilton:
77 fixed it.

PS. It would be good if you could move the library backups somewhere else and softlink them so they don't get wiped in a reset. Lucky I remembered, and that I can get into the Id to copy the backups before the reset and then put them back!  It also restores all my settings which is a PITA to setup again if you don't have a backup to restore from.
