cut and paste problem

[Marc de Courville]

Dear all,

I am new to wine and try to use it to replace vmware for
word/powerpoint applications. The first problem that I encounter is
that I am unable to cut and paste under all the applications
(notepad/word/powerpoint).
It seems that the issue is related to the clipboard behavior because
when I cut (under notepad) I get an error message stating: "Empty clipboard".
Which is kind of strange since I am filling it.

I searched the web and documentation and haven't found anything
related to this issue.

Can anyone help?

Attached: wine config
Config: debian unstable with wine packages coming with the
distribution
