Hi,
this is my first propper venture into the Linux world and I've heard so much about the stability and security and performence gains. I certainly saw the performence gains when i decided to NUKE my winXP resource hogging OS in my work comp and replace it with suse 10.1 off a DVD. However, all has not been well -
The instalation went fine, i selected most of the dev related stuff and was so glad when i saw that it had installed the JDK, Subversion and a GUI client for svn along with the instalation yay.
However, the honeymoon was soon over when i experienced my first explorer crash (Nautilus) on KDE. It happened randomly and i haven't figured it out yet.
But that is not my real problem, I downloaded the Eclipse 3.2 binaries and unpacked it into my /home/ and ran it. It started fine, but it keeps on crashing when i try to build a project. Even if i try and create a brand new project or work using an older project i get the same issue. the damn thing crases with a JVM error message. I even tried to downgrade to Eclipse 3.1.2 which i know was stable in Windows but i get the same error.
Is any1 aware of a Java bug in Suse 10.1 please? This is driving me nuts, I'm contemplating on going back to Windows - please dont let that happen, ill probably end up shooting myself lol.
