1) Installed 64-bit Blackdown-1.4.2 j2sdk in /usr/local/. I used the profile.local file as advised by SuSe to add the sdk to the PATH and also added conf files in /etc/java.
$ java -version java version "1.4.2-rc1" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build Blackdown-1.4.2-rc1) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build Blackdown-1.4.2-rc1, mixed mode)
2) Downloaded eclipse-SDK-3.0M7-linux-motif.zip in /opt
That package includes native 32bit libraries. You cannot link them with a 64bit JVM. Run Eclipse in a 32bit JVM instead, that works fine. Rebuilding it from scratch may also help, but I'm not sure if their code base is really 64bit clean. Using the 32bit JVM like it is shipped with the distribution is certainly the easiest way. -Andi
