Build Identifier: 20100917-0705 Sometimes Copy function (ctrl+c, ctrl+insert, menu item) is not working. Moreover when you try to paste to eclipse, it hangs for 5 seconds or so. It is very annoying. Not sure about exact relation, but seems like it appears more often when you start selection with a mouse and proceed with a keyboard or vice versa. Also It somehow depends on the device (mouse or kbrd) that accomplished previous selection. But the bug appears when you use only one device as well (in this case repeating of Copy operation usually helps, but not gives back 5 seconds of course). Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: See details.
Where can you reproduce this: - text fields - Text editor - Java editor - others?
> - Java editor Not sure about other editors (as I work mostly with java), but at least I don't remember such appearances.

No. And sometimes it is not happening at all. But when happening, restarting of eclipse is helping not for a long time. So probably this can be system issue as well. On another hand - it appears only for eclipse, so not some overall system problem. Currently I cannot formalize conditions when the bug appears. Also I've noticed that sometimes it behaves even more strange - I make Copy action in eclipse, then try to insert it in let's say notepad++, but nothing happening. Then I back to eclipse press ctrl+c again (or two more times) and the text appears in notepad++ by itself.

Sometimes they tend to lock the system clipboard. Moving to SWT for comments.
I have the same problem with eclipse in ubuntu 11.10 with xfce4.8. i cant reproduce it also. but the effect is not depending with the mouse. i hope u can fix it.
