In the first releases of GTK 2.2.1 there is a bug in the gtk_tree_view which causes eclipse to hang and several situations. (examples: Bug#31525, Bug#36429, etc). This bug will not be fixed or worked-around by SWT code since it was already fixed in GTK. Therefore those who are having this bugs will need to update/patch their GTK lib. Here is how to update gtk: RedHat) 8.0 - uses GTK 2.0.6, therefore doesn't have the bug. 8.1 - uses GTK 2.2.1-1 - Has the bug - the fix is to update to Redhat 9.0 9.0 - uses GTK 2.2.1-4 - The bug is fixed in this version. Mandrake) 9.0 - uses GTK 2.0.6, therefore doesn't have the bug. 9.1 - uses GTK 2.2.1-mdk2, has the bug. Need to update to gtk-2.2.1-mdk3, for instructions refer to: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3761 Bug#36429. Suse) 8.1 - uses GTK 2.0.6, therefore doesn't have the bug. 8.2 - untested Source) If you have download the source (ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v2.2/), compiled, and installed it HAS the bug. In this case you will need to apply a patch, re- compile and re-install GTK. The patch is available in http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/attachment.cgi? id=90407&action=view For more info refer to: Bug#31525 http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=85317 http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106311

I fixed the problem on my machine on Mandrake 9.1 by updating GTK to 2.2.2-mkd1. See my comment on the bug in the Mandrake bugzilla.

SuSE 8.2 also has the bug. I've entered a problem report againt SuSE already. Right now I running eclipse on top of GTK 2.2.2 which I have to download and compile. Here is the procedure I used to install GTK 2.2.2 (as root): cd /usr/local/src/ wget ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v2.2/atk-1.2.4.tar.bz2 wget ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v2.2/glib-2.2.2.tar.bz2 wget ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v2.2/pango-1.2.3.tar.bz2 wget ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v2.2/gtk+-2.2.2.tar.bz2 tar xjvf atk-1.2.4.tar.bz2 tar xjvf glib-2.2.2.tar.bz2 tar xjvf gtk+-2.2.2.tar.bz2 tar xjvf pango-1.2.3.tar.bz2 cd glib-2.2.2/ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/gtk-2.2.2/ make make install cd ../atk-1.2.4/ export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/gtk-2.2.2/lib/pkgconfig/ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/gtk-2.2.2/lib/ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/gtk-2.2.2/ make make install cd ../pango-1.2.3/ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/gtk-2.2.2/ make make install cd ../gtk+-2.2.2/ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/gtk-2.2.2/ make make install For every terminal to run eclipse on top GTK 2.2.2 prior running eclipse I need to execute: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/gtk-2.2.2/lib/ otherwise eclipse run on top of default version of gtk2 in the system.
From bug#38301: "Contacted Per, followed his instructions and they seem to fix this problem as well as the freaky scroll bars. FOR GENTOO USERS: To solve this and a number of other GTK-related problems, please install gtk+ 2.2.1-r1 or later. You may need to accept the ~x86 keyword to get the newer GTK to install. The following code snippet takes care of it all (thanks to Per Cederberg): #> ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86"; emerge gtk+-2.2.1-r1 "
Since about yesterday SuSE provides an upgrade to GTK 2.2.1-77 (installed was 2.2.1-29). So far the problem mentioned in Bug 33679 does not have reoccured.
