Hi, I just start to try Eclipse but can't get it to run. I got this error
when I type ./eclipse

An unexpected exception has been detected in native code outside the VM.
Unexpected Signal : 11 occurred at PC=0x4D46D098
Function=XmCreateScrolledList+0x38
Library=/usr/X11R6/lib/libXm.so.2

I'm using Eclipse 2.0.1 (motif version) on RedHat 7.1. Also where can I find
document regarding installation ? Thanks,

Howard Lin

Make sure the motif library shipped with eclipse is used.
e.g. check/unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH

make sure you specify the correct jvm on the command line, as it may be
trying to use the kaffe jre, which is installed by default on 7.1 (they
got rid of that awful thing on later versions). try this command:
./eclipse -vm <path to java vm>
for example:
./eclipse -vm /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1/bin/java
