Here's your error right here: "Cannot load 64-bit SWT libraries on 32-bit JVM" :) You're trying to use x86_64 Eclipse packages with a 32-bit JVM. This is either a configuration issue on your machine (alternatives --config java) or something you're passing to the command (-vm <path to 32-bit JVM>). If you don't mind, could you respond to your thread on fedora-list stating what the problem was just so others can benefit? Thanks :)
I saw that myself after I posted this. Removed the 32bit JRE and set the default to 64bit and everything is running fine.
