Interesting behavior.

Just opened gedit after having copied some text from a java app (netbeans); the entry "paste" in the menus is disabled, but if I type the combination "Ctrl+V", the text is actually pasted.
In terminal, the "paste" entries are disabled, and the combination "Ctrl+Shift+V" doesn't work either.

Status in “openjdk-6” package in Ubuntu: New

Bug description:
With my java applications, NetBeans and SquirrelSQL, I can't copy text from the application to any other external application (e.g. terminal, gedit).
I can do the reverse operation though - e.g. copy text from the terminal to squirrel sql.

I can (unfortunately) reproduce it everytime - in fact, I can't copy any text from the Java applications.
