Comment 1 for bug 38743

I can confirm this problem in my two computers (desktop and laptop). Running Dapper and gnome. The problem is not only entering notes with keyboard shortcuts. In fact, you cannot do anything with the keyboard (for example, you are not able to delete notes with Backspace or Del, (which is a *big* problem). The keyboard works in other parts of the program as the settings dialog, the problem seems to be only in the editor. Before installing Dapper, I worked with this version of Noteedit in other linux (madriva) without problem.
When I start the app, it shows these messages:
