Re: Installing Android development software
I downloaded the ADT Bundle for Linux 64-bit from this page: https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html I installed it and then I did manage to navigate to the eclipse file using Dolphin and start eclipse by clicking on it. I just can't seem to find it any more. I just tried your suggestion and got the following (ie. I did not find it): steve@debian:~$ find -name adt-bundle-linux* steve@debian:~$ su Password: root@debian:/home/steve# find -name adt-bundle-linux* root@debian:/home/steve# cd root@debian:~# find -name adt-bundle-linux* root@debian:~# Thanks for your help!

Re: Installing Android development software
Thanks! Only needed to setup i386 arch and ia32-libs, and a few others. I was reading about that on the link Patrick gave. It looks like it is only required for the android emulator so I thought I might leave it out initially as I can transfer the app to my android phone quite easily to test it. I have made one android app before (I think on Windows) and I remember I never got the emulator to work then (it was ridiculously slow) but it didn't seem to matter too much as I kept uploading the app to my phone to test it. you might what to look at Android Studio beta if your app is already based on gradle or you don't like eclipse. I think I will go for the stable version first but probably should try both at some time.
