I can confirm that. Same problem with feisty, i386 and gedit 2.18.1-0ubuntu1
I think the reason is http://www.gnome.org/learn/access- guide/2.14/keynav-11.html (To Navigate Paned Windows). But actually I don't know how to fix it. Maybe someone can help me :) ** Changed in: gedit (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- F8 shortcut key for external tools does not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/117604 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for gedit in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
