I'm almost sure this is a problem with the X11 input method used by Qt.

Check if the IDE run with QT4 or QT5. If you don't use QT5, it will use 
QT4, unless it is not installed (i.e. no gb.qt4 on your system).

Then run the QT4 qtconfig program to change the default input method.

And run the IDE from a console to check if you are error messages 
printed by QT.
