[news.eclipse.platform.swt] linux gtk multiple selection issue


On my RHEL 5 system, to perform a multiple selection of non-contiguous items in an eclipse tree/list viewer,
instead of the usual ctrl+click gesture I have to do
ctrl+shift+click (very unnatural and unnerving to me).


Other gtk applications, e.g. nautilus, thunderbird allow me to perform multiple
selection with ctrl+click.


In ubuntu 7.10 (dual booted sharing the same data partitions), the same jdk5+eclipse3.2/33 installations behave as I would expect, i.e just ctrl+click ...

any ideas on what is causing the problem ?
