Screenshot of Eclipse IDE while hangs

Hi,
TOday I have tried multiple times in ubuntu 10.04 platform to run Eclipse Ganymede IDE. But each time I start it just hangs and show a blank gray box. I also don't close. I need to kill the process for each start.

I have started this with debug message. please check and suggest proper solution.

Attachment shows multiple IDEs as I have started it multiple times. So each start creates anew box.
Comment 2 Markus Knauer CLA 2011-02-08 14:28:21 EST
I am running Ubuntu myself and never saw problems like that.

One first advice: Download and use a newer version of whatever you downloaded from eclipse.org. Ganymede is many years old and you won't see any bugfixes for that version from the open source community.

Some hints and questions...

* use the argument '-consoleLog' - this will print all log messages to your console window and might be helpful for you to track down the problem

* what did you download (the exact filename) and where did you get your download from?

Closing as worksforme - cannot be reproduced.
Please reopen if the problem still exists and if you can provide further details.
