Thanks for reporting your problem.

I spent a little bit of time using X and 2 "windows notepad" windows 
trying to reproduce the problem, but I wasn't able to do so.

Do you have any other programs running when the problem occurs 
(particularly 'clipboard manager' programs)?

Can you attach a /var/log/xwin/XWin.0.log after you have seen the problem?
