Since you are using SuSE I assume you are using the K Desktop Environment.
Eclipse takes use of the GTK+ - library bindings and hence your Font
settings in KDE are of no affect for GTK+ based programs... ;)

You can change the fonts for any GTK+ programm using the Gnome-Tool
"gnome-font-properties" or using the Tool
"gtk-qt-engine" (http://www.freedesktop.org/Software/gtk-qt) which gives
you an option in your KDE Control Center allowing you to automatically
assign your KDE-Font settings to GTK+-Applications. I think this is the
easiest way for you...

Hope this helps!
