setting up eclipse
I have just started learning java. I downloaded eclipse for linux and had an error for which I then followed scott's advice and typed :
ln -s /usr/lib/jni/libswt-* ~/.swt/lib/linux/x86_64/
Which seemed to help. I want to know that which java should I use?
click on link to see my options
Also, once I have the .class file, how can I run it?

You can get the java version for the linux here
Setting up of eclipse shouldn't be a problem but make sure that java is installed first.

It is better to use HotSpot impl for java(It seems you have open-jdk), so install it following to this url: http://ubuntu-for-humans.blogspot.com/2011/04/installing-java-on-ubuntu-server-1010.html. And use jdk, not jre. Once you run eclipse, eclipse does for you everything: compiles, runs, deployes, IDE, ...
