In some cases on Linux, GTK items in the GUI may not repaint properly. For example, when working with the Tasks view, it may not get refreshed properly. Should this occur, close all perspectives by selecting Windows > Close All Perspectives and then re-open the perspectives you were working with. The refresh problem should no longer occur.
When using the KDE or GNOME desktop on Linux systems, the Ctrl+Fn key sequences are used for switching between virtual desktops. This means that commands bound to these key sequences do not get activated, including Ctrl+F1 (Help), Ctrl+F4 (File > Close) and Ctrl+F6 (Next Editor).
These keys can be reassigned in KDE or GNOME using the Control Center. To do this, open the Control Centre, and select Look & Feel > Shortcuts, then click the Shortcut Sequences tab and select System > Desktop Switching. Set all items to None or to a different key sequence such as Ctrl+Alt+Fn.
The size given for the install is for the actual number of bytes being installed. Most operating system filesystems need to keep bookkeeping about the files in the filesystem. Since there are thousands of files laid down during an install the amount of information the operating system needs to keep about the files can grow quite large. For NTFS a full install may cause 100-200 extra MB of space to show up. So although the install lays down 2GB of data the OS may show 2.2GB or more was installed depending upon the filesystem used.
