Fix broken drag and drop in 10.2.6
Authored by: Shadowcharly on Jun 05, '03 11:16:24AM

I had this problem too for a while and in my case, it was because the process called "pbs" aka "paste board server" aka "our dear clipboard manager for all the fricking computer" stoped working due to a chronic crashing.

I can't remember exactly how i fixed, as it has never returned, but the proccess included the repair privileges maneouver, and substituting the binarie with another new one i got from a properly working computer. Maybe the bin copying was unnedeed, but you know, once you start tingling with your poor system, you can't stop yourself! ;)

I think the repair privileges, and one restart of the system may be enough. And if anyone has the same problem, please try to locate if you pbs is working properly, just for curiosity.

Hope it helps
