eclipse won't die

I have been having this problem ever since jdk 1_5_0_03, I now use 1_5_0_08, Eclipse is 3.2.1-1. I have a few plugins installed, but the problem is reproducible with a fresh Eclipse install, so I don't think this is the issue.

The problem itself is that when I try to close Eclipse it doesn't die -- 2 processes are left sleeping on the system, the workspace remains locked, but the worst part is that somehow they hook to the keyboard, and do not let any key events to reach X -- I have no keyboard untill the processes are manually killed (luckily, Ctrl+Alt+F1 works).

Running eclipse with strace -f, I get the following before the processes hang:

I would really appreciate any help or suggestions.

Re: eclipse won't die

If you're using the packaged eclipse, try downloading it directly from eclipse and using it. Just extract it in your ~/.

Re: eclipse won't die

Already did that -- tried fresh extracts of 3.2.1, 3.2.0, 3.1.1 -- I get the same behavior all over again.

With some versions, I do not experience the keyboard focus problem, but the processes are still left in a 'S' or 'Sl' state.

Re: eclipse won't die

Try this?

java -Xms256m -Xmx320m -XX:PermSize=64m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m -jar /usr/local/lib/eclipse/startup.jar -os linux -ws gtk -arch x86 -launcher /usr/local/lib/eclipse/eclipse -name Eclipse -showsplash 600 -exitdata 4aeb003f -vm /opt/java/jre/bin/java -vmargs -jar /usr/local/lib/eclipse/startup.jar

Re: eclipse won't die

Nope, this did not help either -- the java process was in 'S' state after I closed down eclipse and I had to kill it before I could type this reply.
