I am pretty sure my GTK is broken. Eclipse won't start, it generates the following error message when I tried to start it. (A portion from the .log file)

Also, Adobe Reader 7 could not be launched either. Anyone has any ideas? Is it a good idea to update GTK?
Thanks for your reply Micro420. I had spend a day cracking this problem and now the problem is solved. It is not GTK's problem at all. For eclipse, something is wrong with the 3.0.2 version I downloaded. I am using 3.0.1 now and it works fine.
There is an issue with Adobe Reader 7.0 and SCIM. In order to run Adobe Reader 7.0 properly, I need to do
However, doing this will disable the SCIM. My dumb walk-around for the problem is to create a intermediate script to load acroread. In the script I first run " export XMODIFIERS=@im=SCIM
>export GTK_IM_MODULE=xim" then invoken the real acroread. acroread can be launched without parameter. However, you cannot pass a filename as a file name, it won't run inside firefox even you have the plugin installed for firefox.
I hope mandrake will have update for this problem soon. If anyone knows a better fix to the problem will be appreciated.
