Eclipse and the conflicting shortcut problem

I moved all development activities to linux recently. Part of the migration process involved getting used to some new apps like Kopete / Pidgin / KDE Snapshot etc. It was a breeze until I started debugging my code in eclipse.
I frequently use the eclipse keyboard shortcuts to cut down the time I spend coding / debugging. One of my favorite is Ctrl + Shift + i , which will open up the inspection box for a particular variable. This shortcut just did not work. For quite a few days I did not understand why. The other shortcuts like fix imports ( ctrl + shift + o ) seemed to be working fine. That’s when I stumbled across a kopete shortcut.
