Run/Compile Android app in Linux

Although I have some experience in Android development, I don't have a lot of experience with linux systems. I have an Android application and I would like to know if it is possible to compile and/or run it on a Linux system. If it is possible, what do I need in order to do so?

Eclipse, the ADT-Plugin and the Android-Emulators all work fine in Debian based distributions. Probably also on most other like Red Hat or openSuse,.....

Yes, unless I misunderstand. The computer I work on is running Ubuntu 11.10 Linux distribution. You can just download eclipse and get the plugins or do you want to do something else?

It is not yet possible to run android apps on just any linux distribution. But take a look at the Android-x86 project.

In case I misunderstood your question : if it is about "regular" android development using linux, there are no real issues. Just use your favorite IDE.

You may need to read this tutorial to be able to deploy and debug on your device using USB.
