Adrin is right, though - GNOME's had a built-in clipboard manager for several releases now, so this works with most applications transparently.
However, it still seems to be working for me, with today's Rawhide. I just tested by copying something from gedit, closing gedit, and then pasting it into a gnome-terminal. Worked OK.
I can't find any references for this, though (I learned about it via Planet GNOME eons ago), so I wouldn't know how to tell what's gone wrong for Adrin.
This only works for the Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V way. If you select a text and try to paste using the middle mouse button it only works when the source app is open.
Actually glipper is not that bad ;) since I installed it I have no problem, but I think this feature is better to be in GNOME by default to handle clipboard.
Best, Adrin.
