unable to load default svn client

Installed Eclipse no problem. Although I did install the latest version, Ganymede first. But I installed the latest Europa (3.3) once I found out that CFEclipse doesn't yet work with Ganymede (3.4). I then installed the SVN client and it seemed to go well. But I was getting an error "unable to load default svn client" error.

Found a little help here: http://subclipse.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?listName=users&msgNo=12087

But I already had installed JavaHL and still I was getting the error. But after installing SVNKit (there were 2 and I chose both, a client and something else) it worked. Another problem solved.

JavaHL is the preferred option if possible. I am working on an FAQ to explain the issues and help people get it installed:

It looks like you are on OSX. It is pretty easy to get JavaHL on OSX. Just download and install the SVN 1.5.1 for OSX package from CollabNet.
