This sounds to me like a bug in the Eclipse distribution you are using or a
bug in the UML plugin. You would have better luck asking this question in a
forum for the Eclipse distriubtion or plugin. This mail list is for the
Fedora Linux distribution. Your problem is definitely not caused by Fedora.

I start Eclipse using a shell script where I set up the environment
variables and vm arguments before calling the Eclipse executable.
