I think you want to look for the Emacs keybinding setting in gtkrc. I can't remember the exact details, but I hope that's enough info for you to find it. (I think the GTK maintainers switched to Windows keybindings very badly - ctrl-A went from "start of line" to "select all" so if you wanted to type something extra on the start of the line, you suddenly erased the buffer with no undo possible.)
I've found those Windows keybindings rather irritating and after some surfing / googling / whatever, I found the "recipe" to put
gtk-key-theme-name = "Emacs"
into a file called ~/.gtkrc-2.0 .
