Highlight cut and paste does not work after 11.04 upgrade

[82_28]

This is driving me nuts! It's one of the features I always talk up to people I try to get to try Linux. I upgraded to Natty today and other than not super appreciating the inclusion of a default boot into Unity, I can't get the simple "highlight + click both touchpad buttons" to copy and paste between any application let alone within the same application. I have searched and searched for info on this. Nothing pops up. I've scanned the compiz settings. I just cannot figure this out.

Very minor issue. But this was one of my most favorite small details that makes Linux so great. Help please!

it works fine for me using 11.04 - you could try booting with a Live CD to see if a fresh install works or not
