I'm using the following configuration:

Linux Mint 17.3 Cinnamon 2.8.6
kernel 3.19.0-32-generic
amd radeon r5 m330
driver: xserver-xorg-video-ati v 1:7.3.0-1ubuntu3.1
Eclipse Version: Mars.1 Release (4.5.1)
Build id: 20150924-1200

When I scroll the page I obtain this graphical problem (you can see the code duplicated, I imagine is a refresh problem of the GPU): The graphical artifact

How can I solve the problem? I also tried to used fglrx-updates v. 2:15.200, but i didn't solve anything

I also tried to use an external monitor (samsung screen 23" connected with an hdmi) instead of the laptop screen but the problem doesn't goes away.

  • Because I note the same problem on my computer, we can consider that is not linked to your hardware configuration or eclipse. I am getting the problem on sublime text. However, we are both working on Mint 17.3 – ogs Feb 18 '16 at 23:04
  • @SnP so how have you solved this? It's a bit problematic to work in this way. – Timmy Feb 19 '16 at 17:10

That seems to be related to libgtk3 usage in Linux Mint which is somewhat incompatible with Eclipse. I had the same problem and I cured it adding:

--launcher.GTK_version
2

in eclipse.ini before --launcher.appendVmargs.

Unfortunately that doesn't seem to be the whole story as I still have "strange" crashes, but might be JavaFX-related, so YMMV.
