I'm using eclipse.org version of Eclipse 3.2 along with Sun JDK 1.6.0
on an updated rawhide. Eclipse has always worked perfectly until a
couple of days ago.

Currently checkboxes are broken. They don't seem to highlight
correctly when pressed and also seem to act as a button group even
though they're not. It makes even simple things (like using the file
import dialog to import files into a project) very difficult.

I'm waiting to see if an update to rawhide in the next couple of days
will fix it.
