I am trying to run an Android emulator on Ubuntu 11.10 x64 with Eclipse 3.7. I have installed the SDK, the plugin for Eclipse, have set my PATH variables to include the android-sdk paths, installed the 32 bit libraries, and have created an AVD to run. When I go to Debug or Run however, my system hangs on:
Waiting for HOME ('android.process.acore') to be launched
I have seen other people hang and the solution is usually "check the Logcat" (I have no message here), "add a value for the SD Card in the AVD" (I have done this) or "Wait a while - it will happen eventually" (I let it run over night and still no dice).
Are there any other ideas? Thanks so much!
EDIT:
I should also mention that I have tried relaunching the application which was another commonly suggested solution. Also, the view for the emulator launches, but I never get anything inside of the emulator window (I never see A N D R O I D for example) in case this helps.

Turns out the problem was with VirtualBox (didn't think to mention this, sorry). Unchecking 3D Acceleration caused the emulator to run correctly.
Try starting your emulator on the command line by this command : (cd to your tools folder of your android sdk before that)
emulator -avd avdname
For me the solution was while the emulator stuck on Waiting for HOME ('android.process.acore') to be launched. Launch your app again.and now it will start installing your app.
or you can try starting emulator from AVD manager.
