Hi,
I have Suse packaged Sun JDK 1.5 and Sun JDK 1.6. Eclipse behaved the same way, produced the same error with both!
Had the same symptoms as Ubuntu community! http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=671065
And resolved it with downgrading, as a wrote in my previous mail.

Same here,
openSUSE 10.3, on 32bit.
All SWT based applications stopped working! My biggest problem is my worktool, eclipse! Yesterday was all ok, today it simply died with error Philippe described.
The solution was, that i restored the packages updated today with following versions: xorg-x11-devel-7.2-103.2.i586.rpm xorg-x11-libs-7.2-103.2.i586.rpm xorg-x11-server-7.2-143.6.i586.rpm xorg-x11-server-extra-7.2-143.6.i586.rpm
In previous mail, i noted only libs package as cause by mistake.

Not the point... (see below)... <snip>
The offending packages are:
------------------------<cut>------------------------------ xorg-x11-server-7.2-30.11 Fri 18 Jan 2008 08:39:33 CET xorg-x11-devel-7.2-25 Fri 18 Jan 2008 08:39:08 CET xorg-x11-libs-7.2-25 Fri 18 Jan 2008 08:39:00 CET ------------------------<cut>------------------------------
Similar packages were distributed this morning via apt-get for Ubuntu users and have the same detrimental effects.
Is anyone here aware of this issue ?

Hmm... I am using eclipse 3.2.2 on SuSE 10.2 with the update and it is running without problems for me (so far)... It might be worth specifying JRE version (and whether it is the SuSE RPM version) and and whether Eclipse is the SuSE RPM version...
I looked at bugzilla report and did the update just to check things out, rebooted and have had no problems so far. However, both JRE and Eclipse are SuSE RPM versions, and I am also not using 1.6 This may be where the problem lies, ... It might be worth updating the bugzilla report with these details...
Currently with ...
xorg-x11-server-7.2-30.11 xorg-x11-devel-7.2-25 xorg-x11-libs-7.2-25
As Philippe ... and I have had NO problems with Eclipse on 10.2 (you are running 10.3, Philippe is on 10.2 and there are some differences between what Java versions are available )... so the issue is what if anything is different between what I am doing and what others are doing which is creating a problem... I have java 1.5.0 update 13-0.5 installed ...but I also have the swt_3_2-gtk version of the swt.jar file installed (not certain whether that would be relevant)...

I am using the i586 version without problems. The open-suse security list thread indicates a fix sometime early next week. BTW There is also an indication on this thread that merely restarting X will not complete the installation procedure. Also no-one seems to have noted whether there is a possibility of a third factor, e.g. Window Manager, gtk version also being involved. The fact that it works for some and not others would suggest this. (Unusual for me to have something that works for me and few others on this machine, its usually the other way round :-) ). - -- ============================================================================== I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone.
