I kept having serious issues with gcj and so went to sun's version then just got a .tar.gz package from eclipse.org I run it with: -vm /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun-1.5.0.12/jre/bin/java -vmargs -XX:PermSize=1024M [-vm is because I do have gcj installed but do _not_ want to use it; -XX is that with sun's java and what I was doing, it would crash unless the vm had a larger permSize]
