Comment on Eclipse Ganymede startup problem in Ubuntu : org.eclipse.swt.SWTError: XPCOM erro by Roger

Thanks a lot, this fixed my problem!!

I’d like to add that first I didn’t understood the hint:

“Here is the problem as reported in the /.metadata/.log file”

for I didn’t know where to search for that file – so I was not sure, whether this solution also fits to my problem.

Finally I found it in ~workspace/.metadata/.log – so if there are dummys like me entering this page and may not find the solution to their problem, this may be the hint, where to look for their particular problem, the .metadata directory lays in the directory eclipse uses as root for all projects to be filled in – standard is “workspace”

Is there an api available for it, if commands are not to be used?
And is it possible to get it only with line nos without the owners name?

Comment on Remove the old kernel from Ubuntu by ecosseman

Removing all the kernels in a version – does this effectively uninstal the version or can this have adverse effects? I have 3 different Ubuntu versions and wish to uninstal one. Regards.

Also you may go to the synaptic manager and search the “linux-image.2″ string and unmark all the kernels you dislike

This is the EXACT code to enter. I just unistalled three old kernels using this EXACT code:

sudo apt-get remove –purge 2.6.28-14-*

This code deleted the Ubuntu 9.04 2.6.28.14 kernel
