Installing Eclipse

First get the code

   wget ftp://ftp.cse.buffalo.edu/pub/Eclipse/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.1.1-200509290840/eclipse-SDK-3.1.1-linux-gtk.tar.gz
   cd /usr/local/bin
   tar xvfz $HOME/Software/eclipse-SDK-3.1.1-linux-gtk.tar.gz

Need to give eclipse the right jvm otherwise it will use the first one in its path

   /usr/local/bin/eclipse/eclipse -vm /usr/share/jdk1.5.0_06/bin/java

I aliased the above to "eclipse"
