Anything more specific available on the source of the error?
workspace/.metadata/.log,
console output,
or JRE hs_err_pid*.log?

As Michael mentioned, there have been several GTK related issues, so if the error includes *_gtk_* then that’s what you’re experiencing.
Good news is that there’s usually some workaround like disabling certain GTK features.

On a different PC with Fedora 20 (recently updated to Fedora 23) CSS works fine.
In the Lab we are using Debian 8. On this machine CSS hangs when opening an OPI file.
If you send the ‘QUIT’ signal 
  kill -QUIT {pid of your process}
the JRE creates a stack trace on the console. Look for the main thread to see where it’s hung.
One reason can be missing DNS support, which causes the Channel Access client lib. to hang. It’s trying to resolve the name of the IOC’s IP address so that it can later provide you with nice error messages when the channel disconnects. The fix is to enable DNS or list all IP addresses in /etc/hosts.

For PANDA a simple CSS product coming with BOY and the databrowser would be sufficient for now.
Is there a ready to run version available for CSS 4?
SNS still builds the “basic epics” version of CSS in addition to our site-specific stuff.

Thanks,
Kay
