Bottom line for me is that there is no comparison between the two

Praise, praise, praisebut has anyone out there gotten this
thing to work under Linux?  I tried...I took the binary version
that claimed that it was for my version of Linux and installed it.
I was able to lock the system up three times in 3 minutes
(just by trying to set some options) and it was never stable enough
to even learn how to use.

Perhaps it would be better if I built the whole thing from source?

But, I repeat, anyone out there have it working under Linux
(preferably RH 7.1)?

p.s. what little documentation there was at all, stunk.

 On that topic, would anyone like to suggest
 their favorite Eclipse resource sites that might help beginners?

Thomas,

Can't help on the Linux questions, but here are some good sites to look at:

The Eclipse home page (http://www.eclipse.org/) actually contains a lot 
of carefully hidden information and FAQs . The structure is not that 
inuitive. Drilling down from Projects to Sub-projects to Platform 
Components and then to Development Resource usually yields interesting 
stuff. This is the way to find information on SWT (Eclipse's widget 
toolkit) for example.

 The Community page (http://www.eclipse.org/community/index.html) has 
some great links. The references below come from this page.

The eclipse wiki: (http://eclipsewiki.swiki.net/)  the site already has 
lots of tips, tricks and useful information about eclipse.

A categorized registry of eclipse plug-ins: (http://eclipse-plugins.2y.net/)

I would also recommend the newsgroup. You have to register and get a 
password, but it's very likely you will find an answer to any questions 
you have here. If you are interested in following a specific component's 
progress, there are specific mailing lists for each component.


Simon.
