Well... my problem is pretty simple. I just installed via synaptic eclipse. I start the program, and is shown the message

I used fine Eclipse with cdt until yesterday. Then i discovered that there was a project to use the IDE for fortran. This needed CDT v8, while my version (the one downloaded via synaptic) was 6.0.2. So i added a link found on an official page to the install component section of eclipse, and i updated to the new CDT. Unfortunatly after the update i couldn't open C project anymore. I thought the problem could have been the "overlapping" of two CDT version, so i uninstalled eclipse with all the packages, reinstalled without CDT, and tried again to download from eclipse himself the new CDT. This didn't work... so i give up on on try Phortran and uninstalled everything and reinstalled like it was before. Unfortunatly, i couldn't manage to get eclipse work with cdt anymore, so i went for a complete manual removal of all eclipse-related file on the pc thinking the problem could have been some residual configuration file... completed the operation, i downloaded and installed eclipse from synaptic once again... and now i can't even start it... i suppose i messed with some crucial file?

What can i do?

PS: i use Ubuntu 11.10
PPS: sorry for eventual grammar mistakes

Your grammar's fine!

The answer is never, never, never install Eclipse from any platform
package manager unless you are certain, because it's a weird platform,
that you cannot do otherwise. Always download from eclipse.org.

And, mind you specify the path to your Sun JDK download per
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse.ini#Linux_Example .

Best of luck my friend,

Russ
