eclipse, ubuntu and icon menu

I don't have my sweet menu in eclipse.... As I could see, I'm not alone and there's a lot of people having the same problem like me. But to solve my problem I had to apply two tips :
  • enable menu on ubuntu
gconftool-2 --type Boolean --set /desktop/gnome/interface/menus_have_icons True
see here
You could also use : gconf-editor and check desktop->gnome-interface: menus_have_icons (see here)
  • Start eclipse with a script using UBUNTU_MENUPROXY:
#!/bin/bash
export UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=0
./eclipse -vm /home/theroude/devel/exploit/Java/jdk1.6.0_13/bin 
Hope this help
