Comment 12 for bug 81009

1) Right-click on desktop and chose: Create document-> New Document -> Empty File.
2) Open the new file with gedit and type some text.
3) Select the text with the mouse cursor and left-click after the text.
4) Then press the middle-mouse button to paste the text.

Nothing happens when I complete step 4). It works fine in firefox and in this message that I am currently writing.
