[eclipse-dev] Eclipse hanging on start when userhome on a CIFS mounted share

I'm currently trying to deploy eclipse for pc pool use here
at the university. Our Linux pool is running Debian/GNU Linux
and the user home dirs are mounted with cifs (including unix
extensions) from a Samba server.

It seems that eclipse will not start, if his configuration dir
ison said CIFS share. It will hang forever on start. I've done 
a strace on the java command call, and it seems to hang on some 
calls to the futex command. When i try a local user which has 
his home on the local disk, or when i call eclipse with 
-configuration pointing to the local disk (e.g. /tmp) it will 
work.

Are there any incompabilities between Eclipse and CIFS (or
network shares in general) known?


Mit freundlichen Grüßen / with kind regards
