If you also try the other patch (by changing "801e00c0 3d3f1001 8129ee48" to "38000000 3d3f1001 39200000") you will in fact get "ctrl+space" back in working order. At least I did!
Now the only thing missing is for Apple to take care of the problem with foreign keyboards. I have a danish keyboard and the only way to be able to write characters like "{" is to select US keyboard layout. And that is a little difficult to get use to!
Yup, I noticed the same problem. It looks like the control key is being ignored when pressed in concert with the space bar. With any other key, IDEA 693/ 1.4.1 DP10 Patched can see it just fine. I've redefined it to "alt-space" for now.
I guess we know what Apple was trying to make work when they broke the enter key...

Thank you. I really hope these issues get resolved with the final of 1.4.1 and an update for IDEA 3. It is a shame that I can run a java program on a whole bunch of platforms but not with different keyboard layouts.
I wonder how the jEdit folks are doing this -- it supports all characters on my keyboard (even with JDK 1.3) on MacOS and even puts the menubar at the "right" place. As this is an OpenSource project, maybe the folks at Intellij can have a brief look at the source...
Is it just for me, but the labels for Project, ... on the left and right side of the screen do not paint properly?
Do you have any other tips how to increase productivity with a German keyboard? Defining a Live Template for [] helps a little bit but is far from perfect.
I know jEdit too (i am using it for my PHP projects as well as for SQL and HTML editing). It is most annoying that the german keyboard works perfectly in this as well as another Java application I use (Oxegen XML editor).
The problem with the labels as the side is the same here (sometimes they do show up btw.). I guess this is a problem in the Apple JDK when using rotated fonts.

Regarding [] I have defined a live template as well, as I did not find any key combination that would result in those characters (although I was able to create some very interesting but useless things...).
The unforunate thing is that Apple points to the working applications noting that it is possible, while IntelliJ ignores all questions regarding this issue pointing to Apple not supporting their (IntelliJ's) alternate way to read keyboard input (which does work on other platforms).
As far as I can tell IDEA 3 with JDK 1.4 will be even worse, as I am loosing more and more characters with each DP iteration (< is not working any more since DP8 I think etc.)
