Maybe Eclipse's timeout is too low? it gives up after 5 seconds.  It 
takes ~30-45 seconds (depends on the opened projects) to boot on my 
system (Debian Sid/PowerPC).

Weird.  It does not do that to me.  See attached screenshot.

Note, however, that SableVM cannot be added as a VM into Eclipse. 
Eclipse's notion of a VM seems very Sun centric...

What you can do is add libclasspath.jar as an external Jar in your java 
projects, so that Eclipse's internal compiler can work.


It would be interesting if you could give us a the stack trace gathered 
by hitting "Ctrl" and "\"  [Ctrl+\] when SableVM freezes.  This sends 
SableVM a SIGQUIT signal.  Alternatively, you can "kill -3 PID" where 
PID is the process ID of sablevm running Eclipse (as gathered with "ps").

Have fun!
