--- Comment #1 from Jekyll Wu <adaptee at gmail.com> ---
Thanks for reporting.

However, this report really confuses me. It does not happen for me and should
not happen at all.

First, please paste the output of "konsole --version" here so that we know the
exact version of your konsole. And if you are really using "Ubuntu 11.04(not
typo of 12.04?)", I guess it should be something like konsole-2.6.x.  FYI,
konsole code changes quite a lot between KDE SC 4.7-4.8 and 4.8-4.9, because we
have fixed quite a lot of bugs and made quite a few small improvements. If you
are really using konsole 2.6.x, please try konsole 2.8.x(shipped in KDE SC 4.8)
to see whether your problem is still there.

Second, "I have come across some pages stating that konsole does not use the
"global" clipboard but rather its own". No, that is simply not the truth.
AFAIK, konsole never "has its own clipboard". Would you like to share the URL
for that kind of misinformation?

Third, in the upcoming KDE SC 4.9, we add two options for controlling the
semantics of copy-paste performed through mouse. See bug 183490 for more
information. But that new feature should be totally unrelated with this
reported problem.
