That is application dependent. For example, if you cut something in a
window and then use the yank command in emacs, it will come from the cut
buffer.
I can only think of 2 ways to solve your problem globally:
1) Get a 3-button mouse, or
2) Use 3-button emulation.
I use 3-button emulation, and it works well most of the time. On my
system (linux), I just uncommented the line
Emulate3Buttons
in /etc/XF86Config.
Hope that helps,
