I usually develop my android tests at Windows using the Eclipse IDE. But now that I am needing to do the same at Ubuntu, for some unknown reason the emulator isn't getting loaded, but is getting frozen at the android launching screen. It doesn't show any error message, just get stopped on that screen(I am waiting for more than 2 hours), I don't know why. I am using the Ubuntu 12.04 Precise-Pangolin, and trying to launch the Android 2.2(Froyo) at emulator.

3Need more info. What version of Ubuntu are you using? What version of the SDK, what's the emulator image you are trying to load? – Bruno Oliveira Nov 19 '12 at 20:44

When you launched the emulator from the command line with the `-version` switch, what error messages, etc. appeared? – CommonsWare Nov 19 '12 at 20:59

Depending on your hardware and what version of android you are using, it can take a long time. Honeycomb+ for me took over an hour on my somewhat high end laptop the first time it booted, I thought it had frozen.

Right, but I waited for 2 hours but the emulator didn't launch. However, at the Windows(XP) OS I had to wait just for 10 minutes in my first launch, and, after, less than 5 minutes. – Jhemerson Santos Meneses Nov 19 '12 at 22:09
