I recently updated my computer to Ubuntu 14.04, and I really liked and enjoyed all new features, however within an hour or two, my enjoyment ended. I soon learned that the ADT bundle would crash unexpectedly and all of the time. It doesn't say it crashed. It just randomly exits and then I'm left set back a couple of minutes, which is very inconvenient when coding android apps. Especially given the fact that it 'crashes' after only using it for a couple of minutes.

Is this a common problem? Is this unheard of? Is there a known solution for this?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

EDIT

I decided to run ADT from the terminal to see what output was there when it 'crashes' and so here it is.

So I need a bp log? I don't know that is. Hope this bit helps.

I had the same thing, but an update fixed it for me. Just doing a regular update check says you are up to date, you need to do it through add new software. Read this

It sorted me out fine.

  • For me, ADT crashes on 14.04 as soon as I hover over a keyword or something. It seems related to displaying the little help box that usually comes up. The above answer did not solve this for me. – fohswe May 10 '14 at 07:55
  • @foh1981 yes that is exactly what was happening to me, but updating actually worked great for me. – KodyVanRy May 28 '14 at 16:03
