I have Ubuntu Linux 8.04 on a 64 bit AMD processor, java 6. DDMS installed without a problem, works fine. I do remember that initially, long before I installed the Android sdk, I had problems with Eclipse, until I found what startup command parameters I had to use to make it work properly, and I think I changed a script somewhere, but I don't remember exactly. I do know that 64 bits is a bitch, sometimes.
