I'm using Ubuntu 14.04. I recently installed Android Studio, but whenever I try to run a Hello World app, I get this error:
/home/praveen/Android/Sdk/tools/emulator -avd Nexus_6_API_21 -netspeed full -netdelay none
emulator: ERROR: x86 emulation currently requires hardware acceleration!
Please ensure KVM is properly installed and usable.
CPU acceleration status: KVM is not installed on this machine (/dev/kvm is missing).

Either your CPU does not support virtualization, or it is disabled in the bios. Go into your bios and see if you can find a setting to enable it.
