Eclipse is saying that the "Workspace in use or cannot be created" in Ubuntu. I say ok, probably a lock file was left behind and so I do:
rm ~/workspace/.metadata/.lock
No error (so the file was left behind), yet the problem is not solved. I tried clearing out the workspace path. Same problem.
Googleing, I found this post, so I ran:
sudo gedit /usr/share/eclipse/configuration/.settings/org.eclipse.ui.ide.prefs
removed the RECENT_WORKSPACES line. It works now.

Thanks a lot - that works!
