I can't copy text from my Xfce Terminal (0.4.7) into the clipboard nor directly into the command line. I've tried:
- Middle mouse button
Ctrl+Shift+C
Ctrl + Insert- Right button and clicking copy (this isn't grayed out, it just doesn't do anything)
- Edit → Preferences → Shortcuts → messing with the shortcuts in search for any copy shortcut that will do the trick
- Rebooting the terminal
It's probably worth mentioning that pasting from other sources works just fine.
Now, I'm aware that I'm not the first to ask this question on this website and I'm definitely not the first one I found in Google. All the people who had this problem before me seem to have solved it by simply installing some programs on their machines that manage clipboard operations, but here's the problem: I don't have this privilege, as my company's regulations don't allow me to install anything that hasn't been approved on my machine.
The most frustrating thing is, all my co-workers have the exact same terminal version as I do (Xfce 0.4.7), the same operating system (CentOS 6.8), the same programs installed on them (company regulations...), and no one is experiencing this bug other than me! I must have messed up some settings sometime but I really don't know what might cause this bug.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks
