Hmmm,
Do you have the Kensington driver installed? Any Haxies? Default

No, no, yes. It's a clean install, as fresh and as simple as I can
make it. This is happening on work G5 and home G4. Both machines were
freshly partitioned and loaded with Panther, all of CD #3, and dev
tools and x11 SDK from Cd #4.
I have DF installed, and I am inclined to disable it and see what
happens. Since
Perhaps I do not understand what DF means ... I'm inclined to answer
"do I have Default Folder X installed" then as a no );. But I do have
the default X11 installed!
Strange, indeed. But it happens routinely to me.....
it seems intermittent, and I don't know how to trigger the C&P problem
at will,
it'll take a while to see if that cures things or not...

OK, I'm back to pointing the Finger at X11 and/or Expose. Copy/Paste
using B1/B2 failed minutes after a restart this morning (for security
update and to install OpenAFS). So I did a fast-user-switch to another
account and copy/paste using buttons worked correctly.
I switched to the original account and verified that copy/paste with
b1/b2 still failed, but worked using the keyboard. I had one xterm
open at the time, invoked via .xinitrc like this:
(hmm, can't paste it now!)
Anyway, it's a straight forward call. So I did an Application/Terminal
to open another xterm to test copy/paste there, but I was unable to
gain focus - everything continued to goto the first window even though
I was typing over the second. If I tried to grab the title bar and move
the second xterm, the first moved instead!
I should add I'm using two monitors on a dual 2 GHz G5, main monitor 20
" Apple Cinema, right monitor Apple 15" Studio, and a Kensington
PocketMouse Pro. I never saw this under Jaguar and X11 beta 3, although
that was a single 17" Apple Studio display and 450 MHz Cube
configuration.
