Tom:
Have you tried the beta JDK of 1.5.0? I use eclipse of Fedora 2
(although I admit my projects are small), and I haven't had this
problem. It wouldn't hurt to install it and give it a shot. I'm running
it on Fedora 2, and it seems to be both faster and more stable, eclipse
included.
I actually have both 1.4.2 and 1.5.0 installed, and I modify a 'java.sh'
that I keep in /etc/profile.d to point to one or the other. For now I'm
sticking with 1.5.0.
Just my 2 cents.
