I have

(setq x-select-enable-clipboard t)

in my init and I'm able to paste/yank (using C-y) text I copied from
Firefox (or any other program) into emacs. (Not sure if there is more
than a semantic difference between yank and paste in this case). I use
vanilla Ubuntu 14.04 and have never paid much attention to what
desktop/WM I'm using. I guess it's X based on the docstring, but not
sure.
