Sometimes copy doesnt work

Whether you do ctrl+shift+c or select text then right click and copy, sometimes it just doesnt work.

Update: it appears to only allow pasting in the terminal using the mouse scroll wheel click, the copy doesn't get sent to the global clipboard so isn't available in other applications.

Install xclip or similar to enable global clipboard in terminal. At least that's why it's working for me.

@luetage I do have xclip installed but since I am not able to consistently reproduce this issue I'll close it and reopen if it happens again and I have more details.
