Debugging problem with the Android SDK on Eclipse

I'm trying to open my debugger for an Android project. The emulator opens fine, but the debugger is hanging and thus never fully loads. I keep getting this message, that never goes away:

"Attempting to connect debugger to 'com.example.android.m开发者_StackOverflow社区yApp' on port 8616" (The connection never completes).

I am using Linux Ubuntu 10.10.

Thank you all for your help. :) Matt

set the following flad in your AndroidManifest.xml in the tag application

android:debuggable="true"
