Some updates:

I'm now using Xephyr, in particular I installed xfce4 as the window
manager to run swtbot tests (my main window manager is Cinnamon in Linux
Mint)

I'm running xfce4 through xephyr (I'm using the script found here
https://community.jboss.org/wiki/ConfortableTestingWithSWTBot?_sscc=t
tweaked with windowman="/usr/bin/xfwm4")

then I export

DISPLAY=":1"

and then

mvn clean install

all tests pass! :)
Also the keyboard problems (related to the Italian keyboard layout) seem
to disappeared!

do you think I should fill the Troubleshooting page anyway?  I'm willing
to, in case.

thanks!
cheers
