Looks like it hangs at(based on print statement debug)
# Create the main window now so that we can connect QActions to it.
         self.__createLayout(debugServer)
in the UserInterface.py
Yes CPU appears to be in an endless loop.

This is using the eric4-4.3-snapshot-20081019
I have the dependencies listed on
http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/eric
Version Numbers:
   Python 2.5.2
   Qt 4.4.3
   PyQt4 4.4.3
   sip 4.7.7
   QScintilla 2.2
   eric4 4.3-snapshot-20081019 (r2598)

It was working with eric4.1.1
based on theses dependancies
http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/eric

It's possible there's a bug in one of the ubuntu packages and if I can 
identify that I'll take the issue up with them.

Thanks,
Alex
