I got it going with cedet/ecb, i simply installed them both (to 
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/) and added this: to my .emacs

;; Emacs Code Browser / CEDET


(load-file "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/cedet/common/cedet.el")
(semantic-load-enable-code-helpers)

(add-to-list 'load-path
             "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/ecb")

(load-file "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/ecb/ecb.el")

(require 'ecb)

Then after emacs has started type M-x ecb-activate, you should have a 
window on the left hand side which shows a list
of classes(and methods), buffers, source files in current tree and a 
directory view. I can't find folding support but i can't imagine how 
you'd need it with that list (third button click also takes you to each 
part)If you're still nonplussed i'll send you a screenshot if you like. 
Hope this helps.
