Ok guys, I solved this problem, the eclipse team gave me some solutions:

1-This is the simplest and works for me:

Once finished if you want you can also set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH(the sources sometimes require it) and in the end you can finally launch eclipse. It should work, it works for me and it has to work with you, too.

A different, IMHO better, solution can be found here:

We're talking about a different software, but I'll have a little time left I'll try to install it on the machine.

Hmm, I have just been scooped.....

As guessed from http://www.slacky.eu/forum/viewtopic.php?p=240310
Try, in a terminal:

export MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/usr/lib/mozilla

and then run eclipse.
At least I just saw the program starting up (instead of crashing as described above)
after typing in that same terminal:

pathto/eclipse/eclipse


I've placed the same line in my /etc/profile for future log-ins.

Hope this will cure my eclipse headache as of lately (trying drag-select in a file to edit and the program crashed; trying to choose 'web browser' and the program crashed etc.)

I'm running Slackware-current, and eclipse has started randomly crashing on me. I played around with different versions of jre and jdk, and tried starting eclipse without .eclipse or workspace directories. I tried exporting MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME, but it still crashed. Keeps crashing when it auto-completes a method when I'm typing code.

Any thoughts? Is it because of the seamonkey or java updates in current?

I have the same problem.
but revert to seamonkey 1.1.18 fix this problem.

OK. Where did you get the seamonkey 1.1.18 packages? I'm not seeing them on the slackware mirror...

The seamonkey 1.1.18 package has been moved to /pasture in order to preserve it for whoever needs it.
Like on this Slackware 13.0 mirror: /pasture/seamonkey-1.1.18-i486-1.txz

Hi! I have a problem when i want to start eclipse. I write in terminal ./eclipse and i get no command found.... :S Why?

When you use
The program needs to be in the current directory.
Try to give the whole path
Kind regards

repo i do it in that way..

I would suggest to start your own thread, so we can stay on topic in this one.

Kind regards
