i have not tested FC4 with another PC yet.

the laptop has a double boot linux/winxp and works perfectly under winxp
it was previouly installed with FC3 and was working fine also.
It also work well if i do not launch eclipse !

i can not see any crash related message in /var/log/message after rebooting.

i know it will be very difficult to track this problem without any more 
precision, it is just to let you know.

Are you running Eclipse as root?
