I installed Ubuntu 11.04 yesterday via the Wubi installer and the only problem I am having is that if I minimize Eclipse, I can't find it again. If I try to open Eclipse I get a message telling me that my workspace is already in use (this means the other window is still running).

What can I do about this?

And I have the same problem on Windows XP – rds Jul 25 '11 at 12:05

Try to switch between windows using Alt + Tab. If that doesn't work you can try to find the Java process and see if it's running by launching a console and typing:

ps ax | grep 'eclipse'

I have a similar problem, but with Sublime Text 2, not with eclipse. I can see it running with a ps command. This has happened multiple times, normally after leaving my system running overnight and re-entering my password from the screensaver. It doesn't happen every time, however. – Tauren Jul 3 '11 at 18:32
Also, when close everything and restart the computer, for a second or two during shutdown, my running Sublime Text 2 app shows up on my screen, then the system reboots. @brewer2 - does this happen to you too? – Tauren Jul 3 '11 at 18:38
