Unintended pasting / inserts while typing

[yadayada2]

Good evening,

I have a problem with unintended pastings under Xubuntu. Wherever I am typing, I get unintended inserts into my text. I have installed the XFCE panel clipboard manager to see, if it's the clipboard's content (which you could get by Ctrl+c and Ctrl+v). But that's not, what is pasted into my texts.

So, I figured it is the other clipboard which concurs with the mouse middle-click (you know copying just by marking with the mouse and then inserting the selected text with a middle-click).

And now I run out of ideas. When this happens (and it happens annoyingly often), I am not even near the mouse or my touchpad. I am just typing on my laptops keyboard. I don't know, if there is a secret keyboard shortcut to emulate middle clicking or something like that.

The problem occurs in all applications. Please help me!

I'm assuming that your laptop has a working touchpad on it,and that is likely what is causing this behavior. There are a few ways to disable this while typing. I use syndaemon, which is available in the repositories.
