• startup – Cannot run Eclipse; JVM terminated. Exit code=13 – Stack Overflow

  “I had the same error when configuring eclipse.ini to use JRE6. Turns out I caused this error by incorrectly configuring eclipse to use the 64 bit JVM while running a 32 bit version of eclipse 3.7.

  The correct configuration required the eclipse.ini -vm argumument to use “C:/Program Files (x86)/” instead of “C:/Program Files/”.

  Make sure that the JVM version (32/64 bit) you use matches the eclipse version (32/64 bit).”

• Reduce eclipse tab size with GTK theming – Unix & Linux Stack Exchange

  “The default GNOME3 themes are a disaster for tiny screens. However, the Gnome3 crowd seems to be pretty unwilling to listen to their users. They only think of how stuff looks, in particular on a tablet PC or mobile device, it seems. Soon, Gnome3 will require a 4k screen.

  Anyway, the best solution I have found is to switch the theme to the XFCE themes. On Ubuntu and Debian you should be able to install them via apt install gtk3-engines-xfce gtk2-engines-xfce. Then you can use the gnome-tweak-tool to change the theme. I’m currently using XFCE-orange theme, and it has much less padding than the default Gnome3 desaster “Adwaita”. Plus, it doesn’t use that depressing black for half of the applications! I think the tooltips in Eclipse were also broken with Adwaita.

  I’m slowly switching from Gnome3 to XFCE on my computers, one after another. Because Gnome3 keeps on getting less and less useful for me, as I’m not your average “joe clueless” user that the Gnome3 people consider to be their only audience. I’m fed up with them breaking things for me. Now they’ve just announced to discontinue the panel which I’m using instead of the broken by design gnome-shell.

  For eclipse specifically, I suggest to

  export SWT_GTK3=0
  in your ~/.profile. GTK3 with Eclipse is just a crazy waste of screen space.”
