I installed Kubuntu 7.1 aka Gutsy Gibbon on my workstation to replace Windows XP. Installation was not trouble free and it took some time to get it right. But problems did not stop. While being a Java developer I need to use Eclipse.
The combination of Eclipse 3.3 and Ubuntu 7.1 turned out to be really unstable. File search, long tree lists in navigator etc... They all cause Eclipse to crash. After searching around it seems that it is a known problem but there is no known solution - at least that would work on my machine...

Had also lot of issues with crashes. Do you use Sun Java or gcj? I observed much better performance and stability with sun's java.

I use Sun's Java and it is now quite stable. It was also necessary to increase memory settings for Eclipse.
