HP-UX 10.20 can't copy/paste

[Sheelah Brennan]

Hi- I added a dtwmrc file in my $HOME/.dt directory to try to add pop-up menus when I middle-click the mouse. It didn't work, and I can't copy or paste text like I could before! I tried deleting the dtwmrc file, moving the .dt directory, and rebooting, as well as changing my mouse, but still it's not working. Both the pop-up menus and copy and paste do work when I access my unix box remotely using VNC. Any ideas? Is this a CDE issue?

Sounds as if it should be a CDE issue but don't know why this works remotely ?

Qu : Did you remove your $HOME/.dt contents whilst you were actually logged out from CDE ie from the command line ? If no what happens if you do ?

Hi-

Yes, I removed the .dt directory by telnetting in from another system, during which time I was logged out of my box. But still it didn't work. Got everyone stumped on this one! I wonder if there is some kind of mouse configuration file I don't know about.
