Klipper does not work under Kubuntu 11.04

[hugocoolens]

I have been a longtime Debian user but recently got this PC with Kubuntu pre-installed, so I wanted to give it a try. I got most of it working as expected except one thing which really bothers me a lot: klipper does not work like it should: I have the klipper icon in the bottom bar of my screen but nothing selected comes in it, klipper just sits there doing nothing.
Does anyone here know how to fix this?

Have you clicked on it and clicked on Configure Klipper... and checked what options are checked?

Yes, I clicked on it but I don't get the chance to enter anything for configuring it:
Left-click just doesn't do anything
Right-click just gives me "icon settings"/"Panel options"/"Remove this icon"

any idea what is going wrong?

You're posting in 11.04 Natty, but what version of KDE are you using?

After updating the kernel, I noticed "a pair of scissors" icon appeared in the bottom bar of my desktop, to my surprise it represents klipper and works like it should. Strange enough the normal klipper icon itself is still on the bottom bar doing nothing...
