Subclipse Not Working with Eclipse 3.7 (Indigo) on Fedora 17

Hi Everybody,
I believe that most of the Eclipse lovers might have come across this issue by now. Couple of days back I moved to Fedora 17. As expected it was nice.

But SVN function was broken on my Eclipse. Reason was all the svn libraries has been upgraded to version 1.7.5. Therefore all of the tools written to work with svn 1.6 libraries are useless now.

You have to upgrade your Subclipse to version 1.8.7. To do so first you have to uninstall the old Subclipse and related plug-ins from Eclipse and reinstall them using the Marketplace client which is so easy. Make sure you install the JavaHL Native Library Adapter (v1.7.4) for SVN too.

You May easily do it with Yum (on RedHat based) or Aptitude (On Dabian based)
  • Fedora users need to install the subversion-javahl package ( # yum install subversion-javahl )
  • Debian (Ubuntu) users need to install the libsvn-java package ( # aptitude install libsvn-java )

Not just that. If you are planing to stick to SVN 1.7 then you have to upgrade all your old working copies to the new version. This is so easy. Just do the following on the command prompt or Using Eclipse.

Using command prompt:
svn upgrade

Using Eclipse:
Right click on your project -> Team -> Upgrade (You can find this at the bottom of the right click menu)

Cheers.

BandLuxe Dongle is not Working on Fedora Linux?

Isn't your 3G USB Dongle/Modem is not working on Fedora Linux? Don't worry there is a simple solution for this. But remember BandLuxe is supported by Fedora 13 onwards. Issue is sometimes it can't identify the proper mode for your dongle. Your dongle has 2 interfaces. CD-ROM 3G Modem On a windows operating system these modes are switched easily with the shipped driver. Early days on Fedora 13 it perfectly identified my USB dongle as a 3G Modem. Right after I plugged in the device the NetworkManger Applet started showing the 3G network. For some reason this functionality isn't there now. The usb_modswitch  (for those who don't know about this. This is the tool that do the mode switch for your device. Apparently this works as the driver) is still there though, and all the configurations are seems to be ok. Somehow its not doing what its expected to do anymore. So I had to find a solution for this. Finally I've found one. The trick is done using sd

Most people think that getting things done on Fedora Linux is very difficult. But it is not the case. People doesn't want to change. How bad is that. But I say that configuration and most other things that you want to change on your OS is very easy on Unix base systems. I know that, because I'm using it... :-) OK it's time to get exited now.....
