    Question No copy paste (lxde)

    After installing kali 2018 v3 lxde > dist upgrading to 4.17.0-KLALI3-amd 64
    copy paste seems not to function > right mouse click copy, paste > Ctrl C , V > mouse select, middle click... no luck.
    tried (firefox, leafpad,tested different terminals... nothing works)
    i removed, mouse,keyboard, and other usb hardware that could be conflicting, and tested it with other hardware...nothing works.
    It seems when i try to select text the focus disappears immaturely.
    Is there a CLI command to check, conflicting hard/software that steals my focus?

    Imagine, Linux without the middle mouse copy function, is like using M$ windows without mouse, keyboard, touchscreen and bugs for me

    (btw i don't like other desktops)

    Found the soution. Just disable or uninstall the clipit app.
    To the makers from the Kali Lxde desktop, remove clipit and wicd ( use for example network manager) just an hint
    What still programming in Pascal Yeh man, i learned Hex,ASM,C,C++, Basic...different scripting language....But i prefer/love Pascal END.

    actually clip it has a inbuilt history manager. It purges the clipboard history in 1 second by default.Change it to more time or disable it in the clipit preferences... Hoilaa

    I prefer fixing than removing..I suppose Thats what linux is meant to be..
