In your Maven for Newbies page you say:

Me too, at home have Ubuntu and Eclipse 3.2 on laptop, but I'm reluctant to use it, because Eclipse is so wasteful of screen space, especially in vertical (screen res 1280x800 resolution). Perhaps GTK is to blame, but  I don't know how this works, or if it is configurable.
Have you had any success getting Eclipse to look like as nice as it does on Windows?
