See the sentence about "to receive keyboard events" at the end of the Description section for 2.0 drawing area docs: http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/gtkdrawingarea.html In 1.2 it's somewhat more complicated, in addition to setting GTK_CAN_FOCUS you need to handle focus in/out events by setting/unsetting the GTK_HAS_FOCUS flag. You also need the area to have focus, obviously, usually the user would tab to it to focus it. If you don't want to worry about where the focus is, maybe you want to get key events on the toplevel window instead of a particular widget.
