This issue seems to be specific to Linux.
( I am experiencing it on Readhat Linux )

When you try to select an item in a combo, by clicking it with a mouse
It does show the combo items to be selected.
But this list closes pretty soon, there is not much time to select any item from the Combo

I am seeing this in any Combo widget. For e.g even the inbuilt eclipse preference pages, which have Combo box shows this.

The same works fine on Windows

Is this a known issue? /work around?

The SWT plugin version in this case are
org.eclipse.swt 3.102.0.v20130605-1539
org.eclipse.swt.gtk.linux.x86_64 3.201.0.v20130605-1544

Seeing this issue recently after upgrading to eclipse 4.3

Any help is appreciated.

Regards
Ani
