I can't start Aptana or Eclipse IDE. Currently I work on Ubuntu 12.04 LTE. Before I have update to the last stable 13.04, but I have problems with my development tools, like SVN etc. Also problems with flicker on screen after a break or active screensaver.

Now I'm back on 12.04, 64 bit system. But it is not possible to start Aptana or Eclipse. It freeze always on the start image, nothing doing also nothing inside the process control.

I have re-install Java, also switch to Oracle JDK. Currently is installed openjdk-7.
I have clean the system, no packages or other software the have a problem.

I switch between the different java version, 6 or 7 of openjdk and oracle 7 with sudo update-alternatives --config javac.

I have also tested the 32bit openjdk version, sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jdk:i386, same result, freeze on startup splash screen.

Now I have only installed the last open jdk 7: java -version : 1.7.0_25

I have also no workspace currently for Aptana. The install is new, now settings from older versions. I have also tested with the 32bit version and now back to the right version, last download of Aptana 64bit.

I have also start Aptana with the debug flag and get the follow feedback inside the console.
