Ubuntu – Android emulator does not show up

androidemulation

I have an Acer Travelmate 5735Z, Ubuntu 12.04 and trying to get android SDK running.

When I run ./tools/emulator -avd MYAVD -verbose in the SDK directory, the emulator displays no error messages (or warnings), but no GUI appears!

I have tried several things, I am desperate by now. Grateful for any suggestion.

You do not need install packages any more!

In directory tools, there are many types of emulator, while my computer works with emulator64-arm! My system is Linux Mint 16 amd64! Good luck!

./emulator64-arm @yxphone -sdcard yxsd -scale 0.8
