I would like to tinker with the Android software development kit, and I have found out that it only support 32-bit versions of the Java Platform and Eclipse.

I installed the ia32 Sun Java runtime environment and the 32-bit version of Eclipse. I also used the update-alternatives program to make a java 32-bit preference. Both of these seem to run fine. I also installed the Eclipse android plugins, but my problem lies in the SDK downloaded from Google. When I go to Eclipse preferences and try to tell it about my Android SDK location, there are no SDK targets listed.

Has anyone else gotten this running on Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit? Thanks.

Android SDK requires 32 bit libraries, but that are not include in 64bit version of Ubuntu by default.

Use this for finding dependencies

getlibs

Other sources say you just have to have ia32-libs installed and you're away. The emulator worked for me without having to do anything else.

Is there some reason you can't upgrade to Ubuntu 11.04, which is the latest stable release? In 11.04 the Android SDK just works..

Install the 32-bit libraries for the Android emulator (assuming yum is installed):

yum install glibc.i686 glibc-devel.i686 libstdc++.i686 zlib-devel.i686 ncurses-devel.i686 libX11-devel.i686 libXrender.i686 libXrandr.i686
