Hi Michael, > /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj directory exists on your system?
$ ls -l /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj ls: cannot access /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj: No such file or directory > Can you please > try installing java-gcj-compat-dev additionally? after the installation of that package, I can start eclipse!! I got the following messages: $ eclipse searching for compatible vm... testing /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk...not found testing /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj...found Could not create /usr/local/lib/eclipse/.eclipseextension. Please run as root: touch /usr/local/lib/eclipse/.eclipseextension chmod 2775 /usr/local/lib/eclipse/.eclipseextension chown root:staff /usr/local/lib/eclipse/.eclipseextension $ so I executed those commands and then I got only: $ eclipse searching for compatible vm... testing /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk...not found testing /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj...found $ Thanks a lot! I think that there is something to fix in Depends/Recommends :) Thanks again for your support, Sandro -- Sandro Tosi (aka morph, Morpheus, matrixhasu) My website: http://matrixhasu.altervista.org/ Me at Debian: http://wiki.debian.org/SandroTosi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
