Setup Hardware Devices debugging for Android Studio on Ubuntu 15 10

This video show how to setup /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules in Ubuntu (behind VirtualBox) to enable hardware device debugging in Android Studio.

The development platform is 64-bit Ubuntu-GNOME 15.10 running in VirtualBox, with Android Studio installed with Ubuntu Make (umake).

To enable hardware device debugging in Ubuntu, you have to create /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules file to add device IDs for your debugging devices. (refer: Android Developers Document Using Hardware Devices - Setting up a Device for Development)

Create /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules file with sudo right, add the line and save:

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"

where "18d1" is the USB Vendor ID for Google, Nexus 7 in my case.

Run the command:
$ sudo chmod a+r /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules

This video show how to, behind VirtualBox.
