The clipboard & drag and drop features work in the default Ubuntu GUI environment, but not in i3WM. I'm wondering if there need to be any specific background processes running on Linux for these features to work. I've tried comparing the process list between the two environments, but the diff command yields a daunting list that has been too difficult to parse on my own. For those curious, the ps -A diff looks like this (note the side with i3, i3bar, i3status is the i3WM environment):
