Problems opening Force.com Perspective

    Something seems to be wrong with my Force.com IDE.  It installs fine (Eclipse 3.3.0, Sun JRE 1.6.0_10, Fedora Core 8), but then doesn't seem to work.  When I try to open a force.com perspective it gives the following error:

"Problem opening perspective 'com.salesforce.ide.perspective'"

I've added the text from my workspace log in case it helps, but this has been extremely frustrating.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
On this page, http://wiki.apexdevnet.com/index.php/Force.com_IDE_Release_Notes , the supported platforms mentions that the eclipse version needs to be eclipse 3.3.1.1 or 3.3.2.

Can you try installing on a 3.3.2 sdk and see if the problem persists.

Thanks

Ensure that you have org.eclipse.core.net_<version>.jar in <eclipse-home>/plugins.  This plugin handles Eclipse proxy features, and should be standard w/ 3.3.X installs.
