I'm using Ubuntu for a full year and never had any problem with it (Ubuntu 11.04, 11.10 then 12.04; Eclipse 3.6, 3.7 then 4.2). I'm not using WindowBuilder / GWT Designer though. Have a look at http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/list?can=2&q=designer+ubuntu (also try "designer linux" as search terms, and try search "all issues" too instead of just "open issues"). BTW, as Joseph said, I'm not sure a 64bit OS would really change anything here, and I'm pretty sure you'd better use 32bit OS if your host OS is 32bit (I thought it wasn't even possible to use a 64bit OS, probably depends which virtualization software you use). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
