Can anyone help?

In order to learn how to use eclipse, I try running the eclipse program for the 
first time and get the error message:
[...@hpsl5 programmingEnvironments]$ eclipse &
[2] 9568
[...@hpsl5 programmingEnvironments]$ /usr/bin/java: symbol lookup error: 
/usr/lib/eclipse/configuration/org.eclipse.osgi/bundles/6/1/.cp/libswt-mozilla-gtk-3235.so:
 undefined symbol: _ZN4nsID5ParseEPKc

with the eclipse logo stuck on my screen, and produces a pop-up display with 
the following:

JVM terminated. Exit code=127
/usr/bin/java
-Xms40m
-Xmx256m
-Dosgi.sharedConfiguration.area=/usr/lib/eclipse/configuration
-jar /usr/share/eclipse/startup.jar
-os linux
-ws gtk
-arch x86
-launcher /usr/bin/eclipse
-name Eclipse
-showsplash 600
-exitdata 23802a
-vm /usr/bin/java
-vmargs
-Xms40m
-Xmx256m
-Dosgi.sharedConfiguration.area=/usr/lib/eclipse/configuration
-jar /usr/share/eclipse/startup.jar 

I am running SL 5.0 on an HP Pavilion 5000 laptop:
[...@hpsl5 programmingEnvironments]$ uname -a
Linux hpsl5 2.6.18-128.1.6.el5xen #1 SMP Wed Apr 1 07:49:37 EDT 2009 i686 i686 
i386 GNU/Linux
[...@hpsl5 programmingEnvironments]$ 


Not sure if its the laptop, but it seems general/ 3rd party software which 
install/run without problems on other machines (with SL 5.2 installed) seem to 
unexpectedly crash on this one.

William.
