Other may have experienced problems with adb debugging under ubuntu linux. The symptom is the availability of usb connected android devices e.g. with eclipse. You may test this with adb usb When you get error: insufficient permissions for device you probably run into the same problem like me. However, I found on the internet some more or less sub optimal solutions The basic idea is to start adb as root. The solutions I found were cumbersome. One proposal is to start adb per sudo. An other proposal was to set up a boot script in /etc/init.d My solution is to give adb the permission to start as root. To do so, switch to root sudo bash chown root adb chmod ug+s-w adb security fanatics may propose sudo chown root adb sudo chmod ug+s-w adb If adb is already running you need to kill the demon to start with root permission adb kill-server When everything went right adb usb should return restarting in USB mode if not, try lsusb th check whether your device is already connected
