Ubuntu 14.04 desktop and Android Studio compatibility

Question

I am intending to upgrade my development system in the new year and use Ubuntu 14.04 LTS as the OS. I also need to switch to Android Studio for Android development. I note that the Linux system requirements for Linux state

GNOME or KDE desktop

Ubuntu 14.04 has the Unity 7 as the normal desktop. Will this work correctly with Android Studio?

(I am not an expert in linux and have only limited experience of using it)

Answer 1

Yes, I am using it at the moment. unity 7 is gnome. From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unity_(user_interface) :

Unity is a graphical shell for the GNOME desktop environment developed by Canonical Ltd. for its Ubuntu operating system.
