3. I don't konw if that's just a misprint in your post, but that
should be:

eclipse -data /home/mario/Documents/eclipse

Make sure that directory exists and is writable by you.

if so, at a command prompt, type:

echo $JAVA_HOME

and

echo $PATH

to see if your environment variables are set..

And one thing I just noticed. You downloaded a zip file? I see on the
website they are all zip files, but make sure you download the one for
Linux (x86/GTK 2)

Hope this helps in some way.
