I installed latest Android SDK 4.2(API 17), Google TV addon on my Ubuntu 12.04 Desktop (KVM enabled) When I launched Emulator from command line, it does not have the skin and hardware control as shown in this link https://developers.google.com/tv/android/docs/gtv_emulator#TVKeys It only has a Google TV logo and all black background.
When pushing a simple Hello world program to Emulator, Ecipse console shows ok

But Google TV emulator shows nothing. Still just the logo If I changed AVD to other device like Nexus, I can run Hello on the Nexus AVD successfully.
Below are terminal output of Google TV AVD

From log it seems KVM was enabled successfully? Any help why there is no skin and puss App was not showing anything ?
