I am using SSH in MobaXterm, is there a way to prevent automatic "copy" when you select some text (e.g. in gedit), or with the mouse ?

In MobaXterm, go to Settings -> Configuration -> X11 -> X11 Settings -> Clipboard -> "disable primary".
As the tooltip says:
Define the way MobaXterm will handle copy/paste operations between X11 applications and Windows applications:
- diabled: copy/paste from and to X11 applications will not work
- enabled: copy/paste from and to X11 applications will work
- disable primary: selecting some text will not automatically copy it, only explicit requests to copy text will be handled.

The accepted answer didn't work for me. What did: go to "Settings -> Configuration -> Terminal -> Expert settings" and uncheck "Copy selected text".
