Build ID: M20060921-0945 (Debian version: 3.2.1-3) I am using eclipse 3.1.2 on a debian sid ppc (linux 2.6.18-3-vserver-powerpc) runing on a french layout PowerBook Aluminium. I remapped my keyboard with Xmodmap since XKB does not map the french PowerBook keyboard very well. XKB is completely disabled. You can have a look to my Xmodmap file in [1]. Every applications I use on my box works very well, from emacs to firefox. No problem with any applications (using gtk, qt, athena or pure xlib). I have problems only with eclipse :-( I am unable to input some characters when in the editor window. These characters are mapped on keys bindings using the apple key. Some examples : `{' (apple+`('), `}' (apple+`)'), `\' (apple+`:'), etc. The weirdest thing is that under eclipse I am able to input these characters for instance in file dialog boxes. On advice by Daniel Megert I tried a simple StyledText widget via the snippet [2] which produce the same bad behavior. So I think the bug comes from the implementation of that class in SWT.

Wow. Are you really running Linux-GTK on a Macintosh?
I add this comment as asked by Steve (sorry that I am not that familiar with bugzilla). (In reply to comment #1) > Wow. Are you really running Linux-GTK on a Macintosh? Yes, is this thus surprising ? I do not think so : debian is available on ppc... $ uname -a Linux watney 2.6.18-3-vserver-powerpc #1 SMP Sun Dec 10 18:16:16 CET 2006 ppc GNU/Linux $ cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 cpu : 7447A, altivec supported clock : 1499.999000MHz revision : 0.1 (pvr 8003 0101) bogomips : 36.73 total bogomips : 36.73 timebase : 18432000 platform : PowerMac machine : PowerBook5,4 motherboard : PowerBook5,4 MacRISC3 Power Macintosh detected as : 287 (PowerBook G4 15") pmac flags : 0000001b L2 cache : 512K unified pmac-generation : NewWorld $ file /usr/lib/eclipse/eclipse /usr/lib/eclipse/eclipse: ELF 32-bit MSB executable, PowerPC or cisco 4500, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.2.5, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.2.5, stripped $ gtk-config --version 1.2.10 [watney-bruno-~]$ dpkg --list |grep libgtk ii libgtk1.2 1.2.10-18 The GIMP Toolkit set of widgets for X ii libgtk1.2-common 1.2.10-18 Common files for the GTK+ library ii libgtk1.2-dev 1.2.10-18 Development files for the GIMP Toolkit ii libgtk2-gladexml-perl 1.006-1 Perl interface to use user interfaces create ii libgtk2-perl 1.140-1 Perl interface to the 2.x series of the Gimp ii libgtk2.0-0 2.8.20-3 The GTK+ graphical user interface library ii libgtk2.0-bin 2.8.20-3 The programs for the GTK+ graphical user int ii libgtk2.0-common 2.8.20-3 Common files for the GTK+ graphical user int ii libgtk2.0-dev 2.8.20-3 Development files for the GTK+ library ii libgtkgl2.0-1 1.99.0-2.3 Gimp Toolkit OpenGL area widget shared libra ii libgtkglext1 1.0.6-2.1+b1 OpenGL Extension to GTK (shared libraries) ii libgtkhtml2-0 2.11.0-3 HTML rendering/editing library - runtime fil ii libgtkhtml3.6-18 3.6.2-1 HTML rendering/editing library - runtime fil ii libgtkmm-2.4-1c2a 2.8.8-1 C++ wrappers for GTK+ 2.4 (shared libraries) ii libgtksourceview-common 1.8.2-1 common files for the GTK+ syntax highlightin ii libgtksourceview1.0-0 1.8.2-1 shared libraries for the GTK+ syntax highlig ii libgtkspell0
