Interesting. I only tried running it as root AFTER I could not start
Eclipse as my normal user.
The F8T2 was a clean install, leaving my old home partition unformatted.
I didn't have any problems previously running Eclipse in F7.
I'll try uninstalling/reinstalling Eclipse, making
sure /usr/share/eclipse is empty and try again.
