Hey all,
I know it shouldn't be done, but we ran Eclipse as root. It seemed to
freeze the whole system, mouse pointer, keyboard input etc... No kernel
panic was produced and Eclipse runs fine as a normal user. Is this well
known behaviour for eclipse?
Yeah, we know. I'm hoping to get together this week with one of the
kernel architects to debug the problem.
