Trying to run Apache Directory Studio I’ve found that eclupse crashes in ubuntu karmic 9.10 with the following error:

#
# An unexpected error has been detected by HotSpot Virtual Machine:
#
#  SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x00d64856, pid=8870, tid=3077867296
#
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (1.5.0_11-b03 mixed mode)
# Problematic frame:
# C  [libpango-1.0.so.0+0x23856]  pango_layout_new+0x36
#

I’ve tried running it with different java version and with the GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1 with no luck and found the problem unanswered on lot of sites. Finally the solution required to disable the Assistive Technologies (System -> Preferences -> Assistive Technologies). After that everything works ok.
