Connecting Nexus S to Eclipse under Linux

Question

Trying to get my Nexus S recognized under Ubuntu Linux but DDMS is just showing ?????????? for the device. If I do 'adb devices' it says no permissions. I've updated my /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules to include the output from lsusb but to no avaial. Anyone know how to get this thing recognized?

This is my udev config:

# Bus 002 Device 003: ID 22b8:41db Motorola PCS Motorola Droid (USB Debug)
SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="22b8", MODE=="0666"

# Bus 002 Device 003: ID 18d1:4e22 Google Inc.   << nexus s
SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="18d1", MODE=="0666"

Answer 1

Nevermind - had to restart the udev service. It's working fine now.

Answer 2

I had the same symptoms and realized from the post above that it did not have a GROUP="plugdev" at the end contrarily to what is suggested in the android developers guide. Removing the GROUP entry made it work for Ubuntu 10.04 with Nexus S

Answer 3

I just ran into this problem and was confounded until I realized that I hadn't yet turned on USB debugging on the phone.
