JBoss Tools on Ubuntu 8.04
I finished the installation of Ubuntu 8.04 last night. I just became a 100% open source developer by completely dumping windows. The installation was not very straight forward because I encountered several problems with eclipse running on Ubuntu. The following are the things I needed to solve while trying to install my Java development tools:
1. Eclipse keeps on crashing
This problem was really annoying because eclipse keeps on crashing every 5-10 minutes.
Solution:
Just add this at the end of your eclipse.ini (considering that no previous modification to that file was made):
-XX:MaxPermSize=90M
You will need to adjust the size depending on your computers memory.
2. Cannot open any file with JBoss Tools HTML Editor
When opening any file using JBoss Tools HTML Editor, I get a message box with the following error:
/home/jexter/app/eclipse/plugins/org.mozilla.xulrunner.gtk.linux.x86_1.8.1.3-20070904/xulrunner/libjavaxpcomglue.so: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Solution:
Just install libstdc++5 by simply running this:
apt-get install libstdc++5
Don't forget to update your packages first.

Thank you.
It's been quite a journey trying to find a working combination of different versions of Ubuntu, JDK, Eclipse, JBoss and JBossTools.
Findings so far:
ubuntu-8.10-desktop-i386.iso (32bit Intrepid)
sun-java6
jboss-5.0.0.CR2-jdk6.zip
eclipse-jee-ganymede-SR1-linux-gtk.tar.gz
http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/development (through Eclipse update dialog)

Thanks heaps! I've just decided to switch over to Ubuntu as well because wireless works out of the box with WPA which it didn't for me in previous versions.

Hello! Thanks very much!
I was with the some problem and I solved it installing libstdc++5. But it's valid to remember that it's necessary to install some updates as Birt API on Ganymede.
