Is there a Clipboard Manager (such as M8 clips -
http://m8software.com/clipboards/freeclip/freeclip.htm, or other
similar ones) for Linux? (am using openSUSE 11.0, but this is an
application needed for other distros as well).

I use gnome as default desktop. Is it possible to run klipper in
gnome? (Have installed the KDE 3.x base libs, but can't seem to find
'klipper' anywhere).

Here is what I find:

[05:51:27][J:0][sinner@/boot/grub]$ apt-file search klipper | grep bin
kdebase-dbg: /usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/klipper
kdebase-workspace-dbg: /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib/kde4/bin/klipper
klipper: /usr/bin/klipper
klipper-kde4: /usr/lib/kde4/bin/klipper

Can you not install the klipper package from the suse repositories?

Yes you can use klipper in gnome but glipper works better in gnome.

What are those? (extra functions)?

Ok. Thanks. Will go through the website. Also, for bearing up with me,
as I'm new to Usenet & newsgroups...have mainly used online forums
till now.
It seems many subscribers do not like to view/ignore posts made on
Usenet Groups through Googlegroups; so I hope to be able to install &
configure a newsreader to access/post to Usenet.

When you do this you will need a NNTP host to which you can connect for
receive and send. I recommend motzarella.org and use it myself as well. Unless
of course your ISP provides a NNTP server.
