<h4>Firefox on Linux can crash when looking for user profile</h4>
871
<p>As a result of profile support not being implemented by the Browser widget on linux, browser
872
crashes can occur in contexts where the embedded Firefox browser assumes that a user profile is
873
present.  There is currently one known case of this (see bug <a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=132500">132500</a>).
874
A potential workaround for such cases is to set your MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME environment variable to
875
point at a local Mozilla installation instead of Firefox.</p>

<h4>PPC crashes with IBM 1.5 VM</h4>
886
<p>Setting html content into a Browser widget will fail and result in the Browser appearing empty
879
<p>When running on the IBM Java 5.0 VM, Eclipse crashes while the user is typing in an editor. If using this VM you must disable the JIT
887
if Windows is configured to use version 1 of the Shell.Explorer control.  It is rare that this is
880
 with the -Xnojit vm argument to avoid the crashes (see bug <a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=116730">116730</a>). The command line for launching Eclipse with this vm should be: 
888
the case, but it has been reported, presumably resulting from another application changing this value

"eclipse -vmargs -Dosgi.locking=none -Xnojit".

<h4>Printing on GTK</h4>

In such cases Windows can be configured to use version 2 of the

Shell.Explorer control by changing the value of Windows registry entry <em>HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Shell.Explorer\CLSID</em>

Assuming a that GTK was installed in /usr, the installed backends can be viewed at /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/printbackends.
