I've tried the 3.4M4 build of eclipse on MacOS X Leopard and it works (browsed around for 5 mins and so far it works).
Thanks a lot for the suggestion.
However I still have a problem with keyboard typing characters like @[] , the same problem exists for the soapUI application. Do you have a fix for that as well?

I modify my eclipse.ini file accordingly: Substituting "-XstartOnFirstThread" for "-Djava.awt.headless=true"
