Hi, Tim!

The next step is to install the dependencies, if you haven't done so already. You said you're on Ubuntu, so that's probably something like "sudo apt-get build-dep vim-gnome".

After that, just building Vim with a feature set of NORMAL, BIG, or HUGE (I recommend HUGE to unlock all of Vim's features) should get you clipboard support.

You probably want to run the configure script prior to building.
