I tried change jvm. I changed /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java to /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java (using update-alternatives), but eclipse crashes too. It is a jvm bug or eclipse bug?

The bug is in libswt which is part of eclipse. The problem is fixed upstream and this report is a duplicate of another bug on launchpad. The other bug has an updated (experimental) libswt which has received good reports from a few people.
