Comment 1 mariemat 2008-08-27 10:22:38 UTC
Same issue on opensolaris (Solaris Express Community Edition snv_95 X86) with jdk1.5 ((build 1.5.0_15-b04, mixed mode)
and all versions of netbeans I tried (from 6.1 to the latest nightly build).

All of the following keys are ignored :
- left arrow
- right arrow
- up arrow
- down arrow
- page up
- page down
- home
- end
- del
- backspace
- return
