Hi there Antoine!

I've managed to upgrade my xpra server to v2.5.2-r22875
However, that didn't solve the problem.

Your other hint, starting eclipse like that:
GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus eclipse
worked wonders. No more gray box overlaying my text editors inside eclipse!
thank you!!!

Kind regards
Thomas Käfer
