Oracle sqldeveloper crashes when connecting to oracle 11 db

[Stefan Lohn]

Hi,

Always, when I try to connect my sqldeveloper with a oracle 11 database, it got a segmentation violation, with the message:

WARNING: gnome-keyring:: couldn't connect to: /run/user/slohn/keyring-gTVEOh/pkcs11: No such file or directory

What I am doing is to install the rpm version of the recent sqldeveloper from oracle with the make-sqldeveloper-package of ubuntu. Afterwards I install oracles instantclient basic 11.2. s.th. (I've tried all versions) with alien.

I then create a new connection in the sqldeveloper by putting in any chars into identifyer/username/password and then anything into the tns as connection identifyer or so. Click test and here we go, it crashes.

Now I've wasted too much time, probably someone can help.

I've been using:
Description: Ubuntu 12.10
Release: 12.10

but 12.04 as well. My openjdk is:
