Thanks for the advice, I have tried unsuccessfully your suggestion these are the steps I went through: When I was not having much luck with 1.5.0p2 I uninstalled it at least until 1.4.2 was working with eclipse again. These are the jdk packages on my system: jdk-1.4.2p7_1 Java Development Kit 1.4.2 linux-sun-jdk-1.4.2.08_2 Sun Java Development Kit 1.4 for Linux I deinstalled eclipse then removed the left over directory. I deleted all .eclipse and workspace folders I could find on this system. I deleted all gtk packages of my system and tried to find any left over config files. I commented out every line in my make.conf file. I then went to /usr/ports/java/eclipse and ran make install. I added a new user to the system, checked that his home directory had nothing but the default files (.cshrc, .login, etc). I then logged in with the new user, started x with a gnome session loaded eclipse and still had these difficulties. It does not log anything in the workspace metadata directory or in the .eclipse folder. I have started my laptop behaving the same way by starting up eclipse while logged into the root account. (to use the online plugin update facility). This system was originally installed using beta 4 with the 64-bit packages that were put on the cd by mistake I am pretty certain that I removed and rebuilt all the bad packages when the system was up and running. Now I have backed everything backed up, unless you can think of anything else to try I will perform a fresh install of FreeBSD 6 Beta 5 tomorrow with Gnome, KDE, cvsup packages then update the ports tree to the latest version. NFS mount the /usr/ports/distfiles directory install eclipse and see if I still have this problem. This is what it looks like :-( http://img333.imageshack.us/img333/6540/snapshot19gx.jpg http://img170.imageshack.us/img170/1601/snapshot28gt.jpg http://img170.imageshack.us/img170/7968/snapshot34tx.jpg http://img170.imageshack.us/img170/5931/snapshot41du.jpg Thanks, Mark
