My touch-pad is very good (i think). but i do no know how to PASTE with only my synaptic, so I add an external mouse (2 buttons + 1 wheel).

What I discovered now is that clipboard buffer of aterm is NOT shared with others like fltk editor.In aterm shft+del is useless: just selecting with the touch-pad is enough (it auto copy the section).the shft+ins = PASTE in aterm.
Using the external mouse: double click will select (AND copy the selection), Wheel click (middle button) will paste it ANYWHERE (aterm, editor, firefox). This is why is need a mouse.

Disconnecting touch-pad could be with Xinput, like Juanito said previously. I do not think Xorg should be stop & start. I did not tried because I prefer to use/keep the touchpad.

jazzbiker:
Yes You're right again, Shift-Del is useless, both in aterm and in rxvt. Releasing mouse button is copying selected text.

Even more questions with fifth.
1. We can copy in terminal and paste into fifth.
2. We can copy in fifth and paste into terminal.
3. We can copy in Editor and paste into fifth
4. We CAN NOT copy in fifth and paste into Editor.

My guess, Curaga knows something intereting about this clipboards.

jazzbiker:
Thank You for advice about Xinput, but I am not able to use it under Xfbdev.
So seems that Shift-Ins works everywhere as Paste, and can replace middle mouse click.

@jazzbiker: Sorry to dissapoint you.
I love software on 32 bits. Smaller means less surface for attack versus bloat, so more secure etc.
But my laptop has UEFI_64 (not my choose, it came with win10) and 8 GB RAM, so I am tempted by software on 64 bits.
(yes, I get older and stupid, aka more lazy). Yes, I know, the gain in speed is minor (if ever) for my home work.

So no more (for the time beeing) Xvesa, Xfvdev, only in virtual machines. But I am tempted by firejail also.
All is about pristine/virgin trusted environment. No bloat/spy/useless-features. No unsolicited-updates.
I think I could live with just Firefox, vlc, libre-office, 7zip, in an emergency.

curaga:
X has this weirdness that it has two clipboards, unlike Win and Mac. One for mouse selection and one for app's ctrl-c/other use. But apps use them however they wish.
