Linux Development/Deployment for Samsung Galaxy S3

Question

I'm using a Linux system (Xubuntu) to develop an Android app. I am using Eclipse to develop this app. I would like to be able to test on my Samsung Galaxy S3, but Eclipse cannot seem to find my device. There is nothing listed under the "Choose a running Android device" section.

I searched Samsung's website for USB drivers to the Galaxy S3, but I found none for Linux - only Windows and Mac. Where's the love for us Linux users? It seems absurd that there would be no USB driver for a Linux system to communicate with a Linux-based device. Is there a driver that I can use?

Answer 1

Did you try

adb kill-server

adb start-server

It is required to do the above in Linux. And also you should be logged in as root user,
