Usually, the middle mouse button pastes. I´ve changed this default[1],
but that isn´t relevant here.

Pasting with the mouse button designated for pasting[2] works just
fine. Only LO screws it up because you cannot change its default way of
pasting. Or can you?


[1]: If you care (for a Logitech Trackman Marble FX):

,---- [ /etc/X11/xorg.conf ]
| [...]
| Section "InputDevice"
|     Identifier     "Mouse0"
|     Driver         "mouse"
|     Option         "Protocol" "auto"
|     Option         "Device" "/dev/input/mice"

| xinput -set-prop "PS2++ Logitech TrackMan" "Evdev Wheel Emulation" 1

[2]: Afair it´s button 8, but it´s been a while since I set it up, so
     I´m not sure which one it was. --- Hmm, looking at it, I probably
     don´t need to change the button map when I change it in xorg.conf
     to button 3 ...
