I am using the eclipse ADT-bundle that Google lets you download directly from their site. I am in Ubuntu 13.10 and is using Oracle Java 7. My problem is that Eclipse crashes (freezes) as soon as the autocomplete popup is shown. It seems to be a reported bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=377367 but I cannot find any solution to my problem. Right now I can't develop at all. Anyone who solved this problem?

Solved it. Found out that you can add -Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.DefaultType=mozilla to the end of your eclipse.ini file. Note that this not will work when using the OpenJDK.

    Can you link to where you found the solution? Or if you know why it's happening that'll be great too :) – Populus Aug 14 '14 at 22:17
