You can also use :w[rite] with a range and filename to write a range of
successive lines to a temporary file, and :r[ead] with a line number
(which can be zero) and filename to insert the file after the given line
(or before the first line if the range is zero) into the current file.

There is of course no clipboard on Linux or similar systems when X is
not running or otherwise not available.

See
:help :w_f
:help :r
