I am trying to install Android Studio in Ubuntu 12.04 following the directions from here: http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/studio.html#Updating. When I run studio.sh from android-studio/bin/ I get the following error-message: "OpenJDK 6 is not supported. Please use Oracle Java or newer OpenJDK."

Then I tried to update or install the openjdk using: "sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jdk" and "sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jre", but nothing works.

Any help you could provide I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

You need to install a newer version of JDK. See the instructions. – Lucio Mar 27 '14 at 02:06
Have you tried openjdk-7-jdk? If that doesn't work you could try downloading Oracle Java from www.java.com. – Mar 27 '14 at 02:09
@juxiliary: yes, I tried that, and did not work. thanks though. – gus Mar 31 '14 at 20:36
