I have installed Eclipse 4.2 with Eclipse android plugin(ADT)on ubuntu 11.10. when i launch "Hello World" project as an android application, it simply wont launch!
ps -x > log.txt after launching the emulator, output:
1000 7221 20.0 0.6 16884 6908 ? D 18:11 0:00 /home/tutakhail/android-sdks/tools/emulator-arm -avd AndroidBrowser -netspeed full -netdelay none
launching the emulator manually from shell, i get the following error, shortly after which the emulator launches but is very slow.
emulator: ERROR: Could not load OpenGLES emulation library: libOpenglRender.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
emulator: WARNING: Could not initialize OpenglES emulation, using software renderer.
Any hints on what could be the issue here? Perhaps related to Ubuntu?
I guess its a bug affecting the latest versions of the ADTs perhaps has something to do with NVIDIA GPUs drivers. The issue is discussed here:

The work around that I have found which at least lets me execute my applications till a permanent solution is released, is that by first launching the emulator from shell even if it throws the error. After which i right-click and run my projects as an "Android application". The emulator does surprisingly execute them!
