Off topic:
I'm using ubuntu too.
When you have installed eclipse from the official ubuntu server it will probably not work.
But when you take the IDE from eclipse.org for Linux, you should not have any problems with java. Especially not when you are using the offical java from sun. For c++ or c you nead the gcc too (you surely now).

I think that is the beginning and end of it really. Netbeans is brilliant for Java and Ruby and does a good job with C/C++. Eclipse is probably better than it at everything else.
My main problem with Eclipse is there is a huge array of poor plugins. The Netbeans ones are really high quality if far fewer.
The reason I'd pick Netbeans 6 is because they dramatically improved the raw code manipulation for this release which is the main benefit of Eclipse. I never minded this because I always have my IDE tie into a text editor of my choice.
