Thanks for the reply!
Well I ran
ps aux | grep key
and it didn't come up with anything, so I don't know if I'm running
anything like that.
Yeah, Kopete is running, but if it's not, Ctrl+Shift+C does nothing at
all.
I looked in Kopete settings, and that key combination doesn't exist for
anything, and I looked back at the Control Center for the application
shortcuts, and Kopete has nothing assigned to it.
Well, this is stupid. I just went into gnome-terminal and changed it's
keyboard shortcuts from the default to Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V and all is
well. =/
Shouldn't have wasted the electrons asking about this, and done that to
begin with.
Thanks!
Liam
