Doing this has fixed the problem for someone else. Or, equivalently, start eclipse with the -clean option. Furthermore, since this seems like a gtk thing, try removing your gtk/gnome preference files, or create a new user and try from his account. Another interesting thing would be to try to run eclipse with jdk14 instead of jdk15. The combination of these three tasks (a new user with jdk14 and no eclipse preferences stored) should at least be working. > Just out of interest what log file was the error logged to?
