C-w and C-y are cut and paste for me on linux (and windows using the Emacs W32 port with those shift/C-c/C-v keys disabled so it doesn't emulate windows application mode. My move a region command sequence: - C-SPC to set point - move to beg/end of region - C-w to cut - move to target location - C-y to paste.
