@Ashton: "If you need ... Eclipse, use Fedora": Well, thanks for the hint, but *you can't be serious*! As far as I'm concerned, Fedora is a completely different OS than Ubuntu and (for me at least) just as much of a difference as, let's say, MacOS would be... Having to switch the OS to make something work that worked fine in the previous version is just the reason BUG #1 will be open for much much longer...
@Andriy: Yes, I know. It works fine in 7.10 x64 for me as well, but does *not* currently work in 8.04. I *really* hope this will be fixed (and that's the reason I'm testing 8.04 and posting here), but it's really frustrating to see new things break in every new release. I've tried 4 releases of Ubuntu now and at the beginning I was really impressed / enthusiastic and thought "wow, things are really moving forward rapidly and I can switch in a year or so". In every subsequent release, a lot of things got better but new things broke that had worked before. I'm now officially frustrated... how can I (ever) use a system like that if I can't be sure that things will even "keep working"? I'm sorry, we were told this is not a forum for rants... it's just that I'm frustrated at the moment... and unfortunately, I do not have enough Linux knowledge (yet) to solve this problem myself or help others solve it... Well, maybe I can help a little by posting the log-file: ================== !SESSION 2008-03-31 20:08:11.055 ----------------------------------------------- eclipse.buildId=M20080221-1800 java.version=1.6.0_05 java.vendor=Sun Microsystems Inc.
