I had that same problem. I "solved" it by downloading and installing Beaver. Beaver's pretty nice but, like Gedit, it doesn't allow you to turn off linewrapping. I guess the GTK text control doesn't support that. I'm this close to going in an trying to rewrite the control myself. I begged the author of TextPad for a version for Linux but strangely enough he didn't respond.
