Bug#558693: eclipse: does not start at all

Hi

I know some people have experienced this e.g. by having translation
packages for eclipse installed (there is a bug about this on the Ubuntu
side requesting that the default limit is increased).

You can work around this by changing the limit of open files. (e.g. In
the same terminal: run ulimit -n 2048 as root; switch to own user and
start eclipse)

Out of curiosity; what is you current file limit (output of ulimit -n)?
