How did you install it?

What's the exact command you are using?

1. I unzip the eclipse zip file to a /home/mario/Documents/eclipse
2. I write in .bashrc (but also don't know how to start sh .bashrc always
when I login
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/j2re1.4.1_01
export PATH=$PATH:$JAV A_HOME/bin
3. start eclipse -date /home/mario/Documents/eclipse
I'm a newbie with the Linux so please write me a detail answer

3. I don't konw if that's just a misprint in your post, but that
should be:

eclipse -data /home/mario/Documents/eclipse

Make sure that directory exists and is writable by you.

if so, at a command prompt, type:

echo $JAVA_HOME

and

echo $PATH

to see if your environment variables are set..

And one thing I just noticed. You downloaded a zip file? I see on the
website they are all zip files, but make sure you download the one for
Linux (x86/GTK 2)

Hope this helps in some way.
