Hello, I decided to install my Android development environment on my second OS: Fedora 12 x_86_64 (KDE) with proprietary NVIDIA Drivers. My distribution is up to date.
SUN Java JRE, JDK and Eclipse Galileo EE are installed, Android SDK 2.1, ADT eclipse plugin , android SDK tools, Google APIs... are up to date. I also set up the ~bashrc file for my current user. I tried to create a new Android project (Hello World flavour) and get the following error: Failed to parse the out of 'adb version' ....android-sdk/tools/adb: error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5: cannot open shared object file I figured out that the 32bits libs were missing. So I followed instructions about 32bits needed packages: http://www.crashcourse.ca/wiki/index.php/The_Android_SDK_on_64-bit_Fedora_12 and installed them: ###################################### # yum install glibc.i686 # yum install glibc-devel.i686 # yum install libstdc++.i686 # yum install zlib-devel.i686 # yum install ncurses-devel.i686 # yum install libX11-devel.i686 ###################################### I restarted Eclipse, the previous error message disappeared. I created a virtual device called "fake_phone_2_1" and target my "Hello World" project to Android 2.1. So created my project (HelloDroid), and ran it. The emulator didn't showed up, even after a few minutes. I got no error or warning... I'm missing something here. Console output within Eclipse: -------------------------------- [2010-03-26 20:09:07 - HelloDroid] Android Launch! [2010-03-26 20:09:08 - HelloDroid] adb is running normally.
