I have been wanting to make the switch from Windows to Ubuntu for a while now and decided to do a test run by dual booting on my tower. I installed Ubuntu 13.04 as it was the latest version and had no issues with the set-up. Now that I have it installed I am having issues figuring things out.
A main thing that is bugging me is I tried to set up eclipse using the ADT package(http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html). When it runs if I minimize the window disappears and the icon is not on the sidebar.
Another thing is there seems to be a problem with the Software Centre. When I go to see the currently installed applications, it shows a white screen with an unanimated loading circle in the middle and the cursor turns to the loading cursor.
I guess my question would be is should I downgrade to Ubuntu 12.10 and do my set-up there or just wait for the next update.
Also taking your recommendations if you think I should choose another Linux distribution for Android development.
