Description Michal Borek 2008-08-08 12:20:22 UTC 
Version:           v0.9.7 (using 4.1.1 (KDE 4.1.0 (4.1 >= 20080722)) "release 21.1", KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop / openSUSE_11.0)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.25.11-0.1-pae

When I try to copy something with Ctrl+C or Ctrl+x, sometimes it doesn't work (pastes older selection).

I found it in bugs, but every bug is closed few years ago and refer to KDE 3.5.x not 4.1

I think it's very important thing, because you can lose data with ctrl+x operations (if you have no "Undo" function).

I can confirm this on Eclipse with KDE 4 or KDE 3.
Comment 2 arne anka 2008-08-20 14:43:33 UTC 
same here. additionally (at least on amd64) with ctrl+x the last line is missing on insert, though it was selected.
Comment 3 Dmitry Suzdalev 2008-12-15 13:18:38 UTC 
Yeah, I noticed this too. Can you perhaps provide some clear way to reproduce this?

Also, please tell me do you have option "Synchronize clipboard & selection" turned on or off.
Comment 4 Holger Hees 2009-03-03 12:04:49 UTC 
in kde 4.2 the same error.
