I use LPCXpresso IDE with Opensuse 13.1
To make the installer work, I had to install various 32-bit packages - libpangox, libpangoxft, libncurses, libglu1-mesa, libxtst6, libgtk2.. All 32-bit version.
But after installation the application still didn't start. Some error message about libswt path. There was a couple of suggestion on the net, often involving black magic (softlinks and other), but i think they are not solving the problem (at least for me... :)
To resolve it i installed 32-bit java (java-1_7_0-openjdk, with Yast Software Management select version i585), as i remember temporarily breaking some dependencies, and then I switched back to 64-bit - the idea came from nowhere :) The installation of 32-bit java had a whole lot of dep.-s and apparently some of them was needed to start up the IDE. After a system reinstallation, it was the way that worked again.
But to find the programmer, you have to have the libusb-0_1-4 too (also 32-bit of course). First i didn't have it, just the 1.0 version, and i can guarantee it, it didn't work that way.
Hope this help for Debian users too.
