[Mep-dev] Eclipse working on Moblin v2 Beta?

[Paul Williamson]

Further detail, just for the record. The way I found the appropriate
blog post was to look up the error in workspace/.metadata/.log, where
there's a huge hairy traceback of the problem, deep in the Java code
calling tree. The top few lines of the traceback had rich enough
keywords to enable Google to be my friend yet again.

If you have the time and inclination, please try and install and run Eclipse on an installation of (or virtual machine instantiation of) Moblin v2 Beta and let me know if you are successful?
