GRUB & multi-booting

edit /boot/grub/menu.list

or

use GUI application, Startup-Manager which you can install using synaptic manager.

However, for GRUB2
the above doesn't work.

How do I boot two operating systems, Ubuntu9.10 and MacOSX, using GRUB2?

Problems with Eclipse buttons in Ubuntu 9.10

export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true

org.eclipse.swt.SWTError: XPCOM error -2147467262

if you get this problem
org.eclipse.swt.SWTError: XPCOM error -2147467262

edit the file of eclipse.ini

add the following
-Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.XULRunnerPath=/dev/null
or
-Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.XULRunnerPath=/usr/lib/xulrunner
