I downloaded eclipse IDE (for C/C++ developers) to my Linux box running 14.04 LTS. I downloaded 64 bit version of JRE and 64 bit version of eclipse. I can run fine as root (sudo), but when I try to run from my user account, I get this log file output:

Just to clarify:
sudo eclipse works fine (eclipse at /opt/eclipse/eclipse is linked to /usr/local/bin).
eclipse and /opt/eclipse/eclipse return the error above.
What am I doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Vijay
