I never experienced such behaviour and use Eclipse/StatET daily on
Ubuntu Karmic. I did experience weird UI behaviour once (related to
a GTK bug) and currently use this
#!/bin/bash
export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1
/opt/eclipse/eclipse -debug -consolelog -vmargs -Xms1024m -Xmx2048m
-XX:MaxPermSize=2048m
to launch eclipse (never mind the insane vmargs ;-)
While we're at it: if you have the choice, you can upgrade to Eclipse
3.5.2 (i.e. Galileo SR2) and to StatET 0.8.2 (which is available via the
update site at
http://download.walware.de/eclipse-3.5
)
It so happens that I help a colleague recently to triage this. The problem
there was that a recent rJava was needed + and installed -- and on Ubuntu and
Debian this goes into
/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/
and StatET -- as shipped -- does not look there. I don't use Eclipse so I
don't recall where to set this, but in essence you need to make sure that
StatET looks where R puts things. And that tends to be
The libraries can be set (and auto-detected) when defining an R
environment in the Preferences under StatET > Run/Debug > R
Environments.
The R environment for a particular R Console Run Configuration
is in turn set in the R Config tab (of the named Run Configuration).

CCing Tobias just in case.
Don't hesitate if there would be further questions. There
also is a dedicated StatET user list at
