Actually, yes, there are two clipboards. See
<http://www.jwz.org/doc/x-cut-and-paste.html>. Many apps will support
Ctrl-C, Ctrl-X, and Ctrl-V as shortcuts for the menu copy, cut, and paste
commands. But of course for konsole those keystrokes go to the terminal
session.
On top of that, if you're using KDE then you're probably running klipper.
Klipper takes over some of the clipboard operation, so depending on how
that's configured, things may work differently for you.
