Best solution is to add the SDK directory to yout $PATH

open your .bashrc file with any text editor

and add following. Replace the last part with your path.

export PATH=${PATH}:~/workspace/android-sdk-linux_86/tools

After you have done it open new shell and you should be able to run sdb command frmo any directory.

If you don't want to add it to $PATH then run it from the folder with ./

./adb

Me too............

First time I have ever used Linux. I've loaded it on an old laptop. Copied the "pushfiles" to the desktop.

What do I do next? I am a real noob...................

That last post might as well have been writted in Chinese! Sorry.
