Changing environment variable in suse

yeah, i know it is trivial :) but i am a newbie linux user and i want to note it down, right?

The file to change : /home/hilal.tarakci/.profile

The lines to add :

# added by hilal.tarakci

# eclipse home

export ECLIPSE_HOME=/usr/share/myprograms/ECLIPSEHOME/eclipse

# end of eclipse home

# java home

export JAVA_HOME=/opt/ibm/java-x86_6460

# end of java home

# catalina home

export CATALINA_HOME=/usr/share/myprograms/ECLIPSEHOME/server/apache-tomcat6.0.18

# end of catalina home

# maven repo

export M2_REPO=/usr/share/myprograms/ECLIPSEHOME/m2repo

# end of maven repo

# glassfish bin

export PATH=/usr/share/myprograms/ECLIPSEHOME/server/glassfish/bin:$PATH

# end of glassfish bin

# end of added by hilal.tarakci

The command to work after the change: bash .profile

Restart may be required.

Note: use vi or similar editor to edit .profile, not kwrite:)

Subversive plugin installation for Eclipse Ganymede on suse 11 x64

This maybe a trivial task, but it stole so much time from me !! So, lets note what works:

1.) Add the following update sites:

http://download.eclipse.org/technology/subversive/0.7/update-site/ * Subversive plug-in update site

http://www.polarion.org/projects/subversive/download/eclipse/2.0/update-site/ * Subversive SVN Connectors update site

2.) Select the boxes except the ones under (Subversive site) and (polarion...) in the following picture:

Hibernate

PS. It works for Eclipse Europa on the same environment.
