I've tried to copy text from Vim window to somewhere but it doesn't work. Decisions which I've found with google didn't help too. For instance, using the registers "* and "+.

Command vim version is (Ubuntu 12.04. Vim 7.3):

vim --version | grep clipboard
-clientserver -clipboard +cmdline_compl +cmdline_hist +cmdline_info +comments 
 -xterm_clipboard -xterm_save 

Can you help me to solve it? Should I use other vim version or are there any methods to copy text from Vim to something else?
