Build Identifier: 20100617-1415 (guessing from other pc) The new 3.6 RCP crashes every startup. The IDE want open anyway. Its the final release and not a rc. I searched for similar bugs but just find older one for 3.6 rc or they didnt crashed on startup. Eclipse 3.5 worked without any problems with the same installation. I work every day with eclipse so iam pretty sure that 3.5 worked perfectly on this pc. Operation System: Linux Kubuntu Lucid 10.4 - KDE Destop - 64 bit - Kernel 2.6.32-23-generic java version "1.6.0_20" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_20-b02) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 16.3-b01, mixed mode) Hardware: http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/ca/en/sm/WF06a/321957-321957-64295-3955552-3955552-4095207.html Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Start Eclipse 2.Choose Workspace 3.Read Crashreport ;-)

Assigning to SWT for investigation.
What versions of GTK+ do you have installed?
I guess you mean the swt libary, hope format will be readable dpkg -l libswt* ii libswt-cairo-gtk-3.5-jni 3.5.1+versionbump-2ubuntu2 Standard Widget Toolkit for GTK+ Cairo JNI library ii libswt-glx-gtk-3.5-jni 3.5.1+versionbump-2ubuntu2 Standard Widget Toolkit for GTK+ GLX JNI library ii libswt-gnome-gtk-3.5-jni 3.5.1+versionbump-2ubuntu2 Standard Widget Toolkit for GTK+ GNOME JNI library ii libswt-gtk-3.5-java 3.5.1+versionbump-2ubuntu2 Standard Widget Toolkit for GTK+ Java library ii libswt-gtk-3.5-java-gcj 3.5.1+versionbump-2ubuntu2 Standard Widget Toolkit for GTK+ native library ii libswt-gtk-3.5-jni 3.5.1+versionbump-2ubuntu2 Standard Widget Toolkit for GTK+ JNI library ii libswt-mozilla-gtk-3.5-jni 3.5.1+versionbump-2ubuntu2 Standard Widget Toolkit for GTK+ Mozilla JNI library
(In reply to comment #4) > I guess you mean the swt libary No, I do mean GTK+.
and of course gtk libary following dpkg -l libgtk* ii libgtk2.0-0 2.20.1-0ubuntu2 The GTK+ graphical user interface library ii libgtk2.0-bin 2.20.1-0ubuntu2 programs for the GTK+ graphical user interface library ii libgtk2.0-common 2.20.1-0ubuntu2 Common files for the GTK+ graphical user interface library ii libgtk2.0-dev 2.20.1-0ubuntu2 Development files for the GTK+ library ii libgtkglext1 1.2.0-1ubuntu1 OpenGL Extension to GTK+ (shared libraries) ii libgtkmm-2.4-1c2a 1:2.20.3-0ubuntu1 C++ wrappers for GTK+ (shared libraries)
ok sorry thought you needed both because component changed to swt. Do you have all information needed? or any packages still missing?
maybe this one might be intressting as well. ii gtk2-engines-qtcurve 1.0.2-1ubuntu1 This is a set of widget styles for Gtk2 based app but dont think that there are other packages installed on kubuntu which belongs to gtk beside some libaries from apps which uses gtk but not for the operation system. As far as i know
Please look to comments #10 and #11 at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openjdk-6/+bug/598371 - can it be problem with invalid cast?
The more interesting comment is #5. He has the same problems with openjdk and sun jdk. So this looks for me, that the problem is not with java and thats what i could say from my tests. I tried also to figure out why eclipse dosnt run on my laptop, reinstalling stuff and so on, without any success. But I also have a second pc at home, with the same software installation, further almost the same configuration. And Eclipse work on this PC without any problems. So the only difference is in the hardware and the drivers installed. So maybe thats the point you may look to solve this problem. More detailed: -working PC runs with nvidia graphics -not working laptop runs with intel hd graphics (i5 cpu) both driver informations could be found here: https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa to make a point clear. both software installations are equal (kernel, xorg-server, java...) only difference is that one uses xserver-xorg-video-nouveau and the other xserver-xorg-video-intel maybe that could help And both using sun's jdk "sun-java6-jdk 6.20dlj-1ubuntu3" due the fact that iam doing alot with eclipse.jdt and the java ast and it does not work correct with openjdk.
I have two laptops with Kubuntu on the first one and Slackware on the second one. Eclipse crashes only on Kubuntu machine and everything works OK on the Slackware. I think that the problem is not Java but in GTK SWT implementation or in GTK itself (or maybe gtk-qt-engine makes some mess??).
In the past (years ago) I remember that we had many problems with the qt-engine for gtk. Could you change the theme for gtk application and let us know if anything changes ?
Yes, changing the widget style from QtCurve allowed my eclipse to boot up finally. Though it looks ugly now but at least the suggestion works, thanks.
OK, switching back to QtCurve from Raleigh and restarting eclipse, now it's working properly! So for now the workaround (that works for me) is 1. Change the widget style to Raleigh 2. Start and exit eclipse 3. Change back to QtCurve for better looking style 4. Start eclipse again
I can confirm too that turning off QtCurve fixes the problem
Comment 14 helped me. I had problems with both openjdk and Sun's JDK. Now they both work. Thanks!

I also ran into this with Kubuntu 14.04 Changing GTK2 theme (In KDE system settings) from oxygen-gtk to Raleigh and back again from Raleigh to oxygen-gtk as explained in comment 14 solved the problem for me.
