All three comand lines_Terminal emulator,Xterm and UXterm-works okay when I type something,for example: sudo apt-get... But when I copy something,for example a command from the site,I paste it on Xterm,i see a with area. It dosn't paste. Please could you help me to fix this? Thanks, Sadegh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arox Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 How do you select and paste ? xterm is a good old X11 app : the selection is done by highlighting text (no need to do copy), the paste is done by middle button press (the text must remained highlighted in source, because there is no intermediate buffer (app to app communication).

sadegh Posted March 25, 2017 Author Share Posted March 25, 2017 I tried in all of those situations;copy from a site and paste on Xterm. At my desktop -LXLE- goes everything ok,but here...this is the first time i see this. I think maybe I did something wrong with installing or after install,bur can discover it where and how.

arox Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 With x11 primary selection, you don't "copy". You select text somewhere, and then can get it to paste in another app. If you cannot paste highlighted text with middle mouse button, it should mean that another app steal the selection.

Da Alchemist Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Simply install another terminal. sudo apt-get install gnome-terminal will give you a copy paste console. I do not know why this terminals are installed on armbian Desktops Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
