We have a Kubuntu Linux laptop with 512MB RAM.
It is a 64 bit OS and it comes setup with a 64 bit JDK.
The 64 bit JVM uses server mode and uses too much memory.
We put in a 32 bit JVM which we can use with NetBeans.
However we can't get Eclipse to use the 32 bit JVM.
The result is that Eclipse has excessive memory requirements and NetBeans
is reasonable.
The question is: what do we need to modify in Eclipse in order that
Eclipse will use the 32 bit JVM?

Thanks,
Ilan
