Hello, I'm using Eclipse 3.2 with Ubuntu Edgy.

Eclipse SDK

Version: 3.2.1
Build id: M20060921-0945 (Ubuntu version: 3.2.1-0ubuntu1)


I experienced the strange problem I describe belows, so I tried a full-reinstall
of eclipse and all libraries; the problem persists even with a brand new install
and a brand new workspace.

the system is fully updated. Eclipse SDK and libraries are those that come with
Ubuntu, while pydev 1.2.5 + pydev extensions were installed from the official
repository (i never installed the pydev provided by ubuntu to prevent conflicts).
The only addition is Lunar Editor Enhancements, but I've verified the issue
arises even removing it.

I can't tell exactly when/what happened, it was yesterday or today... I'm not
able to to bind Ctrl+3 as Python Comment!

If I try (beside the fact that a kind of blueish triangle appears at the left
of the scope in Preferences -> Keys -> Modify, but I think it means something
like 'User defined').

I tried removing all bindings for Ctrl+3 after taking a look at Keys->View (it
was assigned to Python Comment only, BTW) and then setting it again to "Python
Comment" in "Pydev editor" scope.

Nothing happens! If I try using it, it's just like the selected text blinks
and nothing more.

After trying for a while, I removed the ctrl+2 keybinding (something for 'offline
scripting' or  similar) and assigned it to Python Comment; works 100%.

Then I tried using Ctrl+3 (no keybinding is defined! in keys->view I simply
see nothing under ctrl+3)... and it works a Python Uncomment, which is bound
to Shift+Ctrl+3 instead (but shift+ctrl+3 works as well).

I work with an external usb keyboard on a laptop, so I thought there might be
something weird with it, I don't know, some strange keycode emitted, so I went
back to the internal keyboard, I tried saving & rebooting everything, and the
behaviour stays the same.

Today Ubuntu released a lot of updates regarding gtk/glib and other important
gui-related libraries... I don't know whatever other change has happened to
my system. I'm posting this to the ubuntu forums as well... I tried looking
for any enabled assistive technology, but it doesn't seem the case: if I press
ctrl+downarrow I don't get the shift+ctrl+downarrow functionality.

Let me know if you have any idea and/or how can I post any debug information
you could need.

Alan
