Eclipse SDK-3.0M7

5 Mar 2004

      Hello,
I'm trying to run Eclipse on SuSE 9.0 for AMD64. The x86_64 installation 
is working realtively fine ( I still don't have hardware acceleration 
for Asus 9600XT and the SyncMaster959NF is not recognized). Yast2 says 
everything installed is up-to-date. This is what I did with the (still 
unfulfilled) hope of starting Eclipse:

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

$ cd /opt
$ chmod 777 eclipse-SDK-3.0M7-linux-motif.zip
$ unzip eclipse-SDK-3.0M7-linux-motif.zip
$ cd eclipse
$ /.eclipse

the result was a terminal full of errors, so I Googled.
http://lists.suse.com/archive/suse-amd64/2003-Dec/0086.html
removed the errros in the terminal.
But then after seeing the splashscreen I got the error box "problems at 
startup". The .log file read:

so I checked if the file was there and it WAS there:

... another 6 or so hours of Googling and experimenting with things like:

export 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.swt.motif_3.0.0/os/linux/x86/

from:

http://groups.google.de/groups?hl=de&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&threadm=bifv3g%2439si%241%40news.boulder.ibm.com&rnum=20&prev=/groups%3Fq%3Declipse%2BUnsatisfiedLinkError%26start%3D10%26hl%3Dde%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8%26oe%3DUTF-8%26scoring%3Dd%26selm%3Dbifv3g%252439si%25241%2540news.boulder.ibm.com%26rnum%3D20

and nothing wokrked.

I also tried to install the GTK version - the result was equally disastrous:

libswt-pi-gtk-3038.so is of course there where it should be:

Does somebody have a clue how I can get Eclipse working ?

Thanks in advance,
