If completion options are available, it is possible to type in text and select previously typed entries. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Launch Eclipse 2. Press CTRL-H for search 3. Navigate to the 'Plug-in Search' tag

Forgot to mention: rpm -q gtk2 gtk2-2.18.1-3.5.i586
Have you tried typing in "export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true" and then running eclipse from same terminal?

Does the same thing occur for the Ctrl+F search dialog in a text editor?
I think this may be fixed bug the patch for bug 287307. The reason I say that is because the Fedora builds of 3.5.1 include that patch _and_ the GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true workaround and I cannot reproduce this with that setup.
(In reply to comment #5) > Does the same thing occur for the Ctrl+F search dialog in a text editor? Yes, it does. The find text box works, since I have text completions, but the replace one does not.

I can't try that (yet) since http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/ only has M20091111-0800 , which does not contain the fix for bug 287307 .

Download another build like 3.6M3 and see if that helps (with and without the environment variable definition). Just start on a new workspace and test your simple steps.

After digging more, seems this is specific to running in KDE 4.3 , as running in GNOME 2.28 works fine. I think this is triggered by enabling the QTCurve style for GTK applications. Will check more.
Also posted on https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=556124 - I'm not sure that this necessarily a problem in Eclipse.
Created attachment 152450 [details] Screenshot of the problem Same happens for me once I installed Supclipse and try to add a repository. Please see the attached screenshot. (This happens with Eclipse 3.5 & Subclipse updated to the current released versions)
This is a QtCurve-gtk2 bug which has been solved in a more recent release that the one currently bundled with openSUSE 11.2 . Please see the Novell bug tracker for more details. I think this can be closed as NOT_ECLIPSE.
Thanks Robert. Closing as NOT_ECLIPSE.
