I can copy and paste from KDE (either the terminal or kedit) to netscape fine, using either a three button mouse or a two button mouse with "emulate 3 buttons" (simultaneous left-right). Don't know about applixware, or wheel mice. But I've seen that even genuine 3-button mice can be configured to paste with simultaneous left-right clicks, so I imagine there shouldn't be a problem with any mouse which has >= 2 buttons. Rahul.
