Description Sayamindu Dasgupta 2003-08-06 06:32:22 UTC 
Steps to reproduce the issue (nnote that this is a very non-generic example):

1. Mount the floppy
2. Open /mnt/floppy by clicking on the icon on the Desktop
3. Open $HOME in another window
4. Copy file foobar from $HOME
5. Try to paste it into /mnt/floppy

Expected result:
$HOME/foobar should be copied into /mnt/floppy

Actual result:
Paste option in menu is grayed out.

Workaround:

1. Close the /mnt/floppy window.
2. Reopen it
3. Try pasting it again.
