I fear I do not have any solutions, but only comments that "everything
works".
1- Clipboard: it seems that there is a specific clipboard for Emacs
under Fedora/Gnome; I am unable to copy something from any other
application and paste it in emacs. It is always the last thing
copied/cut *in* emacs which is pasted in emacs whatever you could have
selected and copied in other windows (say: terminal, acroread...)
I use FC6 and I see no problem in copy-paste from/to emacs. I select
text using the mouse in a terminal then I paste it in emacs' scratch
pad using the middle mouse button. Same with open office, sylpheed,
etc.. With the pdf viewer there's a special function to select text.
Once this function is used, then I can paste the copied text im emacs
using Ctrl-Ins.
I must say that I compile my own emacs that I've picked up sometime ago
(about 2 years) at the cvs on Savannah. It reports to be of the
22.0.51.1 variety. I compile it using no special switches, just a
simple configure, make bootstrap, make install.
2- The dead key circumflex/trema of my french keyboard is not
working
in Emacs: the sequence ^a doesn't give â but a (same with ^e,^i,...).
I do not use a French kybd, but a German one. Nevertheless, the French
accentuated letters are all available in emacs, as well as when doing
copy-paste from other apps. In fact, I reguarly write text in emacs
and copy-paste it in Windows' Outlook running in vmware.
