[platform-help-dev] Startup error, java.lang.RuntimeException, java.lang

[Lukasz Budnik <xhemjl@xxxxxxx>]

Hello.

I'm new with Ecplise under Linux(I used it before only on Windows)

I've downloaded the newest J2re and Ecplipse binaries, installed
them and...

when I run ecplipse I can see for a while the logo of Eclipse and
then eclipse crushes...

I don't know if it's proper mailing list but I saw only one list
with the 'help' text in it's address ;-)

log info below this message

any ideas how to solve this problem?
is it my fault? or java or ecplise or my RH 9.1(kernel 2.4.20)?

thanks in advance for your help

best regards Lukasz Budnik
