It seems that the good folks over at Novell have been working hard on Eclipse content. The Linux University for Developers page contains a bunch of Eclipse tutorials/demos that take you through the process of getting started with Eclipse on OpenSUSE Linux. I went through the first tutorial, titled “Getting Started with the Eclipse IDE“. If you’re new to Eclipse, it’s a pretty good place to start. It discusses how you go about loading Eclipse onto your workstation, and even gets into where to find and how to install useful plug-ins.
Unfortunately Gunnar, they also opted to not include “Sweet Home Alabama” for background music…
