Good day;

Having a time getting cut and paste to work in a new 
FreeBSD-8.1-RELEASE-p1 installation

I am using a newly rebuilt world and kernel that I cvsup'd yesterday 
but, I was not able to get it
going with GENERIC either.

#> uname -a
#> ******.**********.net 8.1-RELEASE-p1 
******,**********.net:/usr/opj/usr/src/sys/BLACKY101410

I have built xclipboard from ports and am using fluxbox ver. 1.1.1 and 
Eterm ver. 0.9.5. 
I think I should be able to cut and paste between a brower - Firefox - 
and Eterm and vice-versa.
I haven't been able to glean the appropriate information from the handbook.

T.I.A.

Michael
