Could somebody suggest me a way to run/debug the app on my current environment. Am i missing something obvious here. Please let me know in case any further information is required from my side.

Answer 1

KVM is missing, means, you should read this tutorial:

http://blog.whitehorses.nl/2015/03/07/enabling-hardware-acceleration-for-android-sdk-emulator-on-linux/

“INFO: KVM is disabled by your BIOS HINT: Enter your BIOS setup and enable Virtualization Technology (VT), and then hard poweroff/poweron your system KVM acceleration can NOT be used”

and of course, The next step is to install the KVM and a few other packages needed. To do so, type

sudo apt-get install qemu-kvm libvirt-bin ubuntu-vm-builder bridge-utils

Add your user to some groups, replacing <user> by your own username:

sudo adduser <user> libvirtd
sudo adduser <user> kvm

Check if everything is ok.

Remember, HAXM is not compatible with linux.

According to: https://askubuntu.com/questions/600727/alternate-software-for-ubuntu

Answer 2

Either your CPU does not support virtualization, or it is disabled in the bios. Go into your bios and see if you can find a setting to enable it.

Answer 3

I spent a few hours trying to solve this problem on my mac. It turns out that you need to enable/allow HAXM in System Perferances (Security/Privacy in the General Tab)
