Description of problem: I can't switch workspaces anymore by selecting 'File > Switch Workspace'. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): eclipse-platform-3.5.1-22.fc12.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Actual results: Eclipse process still consumes ~20-40% CPU but never exits or opens the new workspace.
You say "I can't switch workspaces _anymore_" (emphasis mine) -- were you able to before a recent update? Did anything change on your computer?
I could not trace this back until stumbling over bug 509956 and actually I recently enabled "assistive technologies". After disabling it, the issue is resolved so I mark it as a duplicate of bug 509956. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 509956 ***
