ctrl-PageUp and ctrl-PageDown are (apparently) not bound by default by
gnome-terminal. To bind them to whatever you would like them to do, go
to the menu bar and select Edit -> Keyboard Shortcuts... . There you
can specify that Switch to Previous Tab should be <Control>Page_Up (just
click on the entry and then type ctrl-PageUp). Same for Swith to Next Tab.
