What version are you using?
You might recall my occasional grumblings about KDE (and Konsole in particular)
having trouble copy/pasting but that went away with 2.3.3. At the risk of
being obvious, I'd also suggest fiddling with the copy and paste prefences and
see if that helps.

In 1997 a group of programmers started writing a desktop environment to fix a
travesty they didn't create. Their program promptly found its way onto un*x
systems everywhere. Today, still opposed by a software monopolist, they survive
as soldiers of fortune. If you share their vision, if you know you can help,
and if you can connect to internet, maybe you can join... the K-Team.
