Hi,
>From my experience with the Archos 5 IT I don't think there are any
restriction on debugging. The only catch is, that the device comes
without the google applications and api, so you e.g. can't run an
application using google maps.
But there is an unofficial way to get around this limitaion at
http://archosfans.com/category/hacking/
To get debugging working under Ubuntu 9.10 do the following:
1. Switch your Archos to ADB mode
Settings->USB Connection->Connection mode-> Debug bridge(ADB)
2. Connect you Archos to your PC via USB and call lsusb
You will see something like this:
Bus 001 Device 007: ID 0e79:1361 Archos, Inc.
Where 0e79 is the USB vendor id, should always be the same, but who
knows.
3. Add a file called /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules containing this:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0e79", MODE="0666"
4. Edit the file .android/adb_usb.ini and add a single line:
0x0e79
5. Now the Archos shows up in eclipse and you can connect via
./adb shell.
If you don't see the Archos in eclipse and get some error about
permission problems, then most probably the debug server does not run as
root. In this case run:
sudo ./adb kill-server
sudo ./adb start-server
Hope that helps,
Fabian
