Hi,

After installing, Xpresso on Ubuntu 12.10, it runs up to opening perspective and then showing a licence dialog, then exiting (crash).

here is the tail of the output

I have added it to the path and also run with UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=0 but this is no help.

Any ideas?
Thanks!

Two things you can try.

First, does it run when you start as root ?
If so, there might be a access rights problem (less likely).

Second, you might need to change the default java. AFAIK, most distributions come with OpenJDK.
Eclipse/LPCXpresso might not work well with it; [FONT=Courier New][B]update-java-alternatives[/B][/FONT] could help in this case.
