I've complained in the past about the fact that Eclipse for Solaris/X86 is linked to Motif and thus, drag-and-drop doesn't work, the mouse-wheel support is broken and  the whole thing looks like crap.

Since then I've switched over to Netbeans, but I when I saw that instructions were available for building Eclipse 3.1.1 on Solaris/X86/GTK, I just couldn't resist trying them out. Here's the result, Eclipse 3.1.1 running on Solaris 10 for X86. Looks almost as good as Netbeans, eh? Maybe they'll finally put an end to those awful Motif builds.
