Eclipse in FC4 has been compiled with gcj java compiler and is a native application, not Java Bytecode as the Normal Eclipse.<BR>
If you just install Java 1.5, then you will mess up the gcj java evironment (See the FC4 Release Notes).<BR>
There ways to get the SUN Java and gcj java to coexist, check out this page to see how.<BR>
