Intellij starts with insert key on

i have moved to intellij 14 (using centos 7).

Each time that i open a file using intellij, it opens it when the 'insert' key is pressed.

how do i change it? can it be a problem with the centos? (when opening a new gedit document it appears to be ok)

thank you

Press the "Ins" key to toggle overtype mode off. Depending on your keyboard model, this key may also be labeled "Insert." If you simply want to disable overtype mode but keep the ability to toggle it back on, you are done.

The problem was the ideaVim intellij plugin.

after disabling it, the problem was solved and the 'tab' key started working for multiple lines selection.
