At a command prompt run:
sudo apt-get install ia32-sun-java6-bin
... or get it from Synaptic.
Download a 32-bit version of Eclipse from:
eclipse.org. Extract the package to your home directory.
Right click on the Gnome panel and select "Add to Panel..."
Select "Custom Application Launcher" and click "Add"
Name: Eclipse IDE
Command: /home/qk/eclipse/eclipse -vm /usr/lib/jvm/ia32-java-6-sun/bin/java
Comment:qk is the coolest :)
(You can also set the icon by clicking on the default icon and navigating to your eclipse install directory. Replace qk with your username and/or eclipse with where you put eclipse.)
Click "OK"
Click the Eclipse launcher and you should be all set.
System>>Administration>>Hardware Drivers
Check "Enabled" for: NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver
After you hit "OK" a bunch of times a few drivers will be installed and you will be told to reboot.
After reboot, I still only had one screen come up. Edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf (back it up first) to look like this:
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following command:
# sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
