have to click next to it to give the document the focus, and then pressing
crtl+f works.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. goto google
2. notice that the inputfield has the focus
3. press crtl+f
Actual Results:  
nothing

Expected Results:  
show the findtoolbar

Seems to work here:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040722
Firefox/0.9.1+
Might be a Linux only issue.

I guess it's a linux-only problem then...

wtf, just noticed that pressing crtl+G does show op the search toolbar when a
textbox is focused.

so:
crtl+f works when the document has focus
crtl+g works both when the docuent has focus and when a textbox has focus

Just found out that F3 also opens the toolbar, so only CRTL+F has a problem. Is
there some linux-user that can confirm this bug?

Yes. Ctrl+F does nothing; F3 and Ctrl+G both bring up the toolbar.

Confirming.

I don't think this is a large bug (some focus copy/paste work i guess...), can
somebody confirm this one as it is confirmed by linux-users?

looking over my submitted bugs, this one seems fixed in the meantime.
