Running adb on Ubuntu 11.10 results Permission Den

Question

I've searched a lot of resources for this problem but none of them helped. So, I've followed this steps http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/device.html#setting-up and after I tried ./adb devices, and it shows "Permission Denied".

I'm logged as root, and the weird is that on Ubuntu 10.04 it runs fine, but now I upgraded to 11.10 and the problem shows up.

I did this to rules.d also, which is for Samsung:

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="04E8", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"

UPDATE I did this, copied the android sdk folder to /home/user and set the permission for adb to +x and when I type ls -la ./adb it shows -rwx--x--x.

And then when I type ./adb devices it says:

-bash: ./adb: No such file or directory

Any Idea?? Thanks.

I copied the folder of the android sdk to /home/<user>, and for the problem with:

no such file or directory

I installed the ia32-libs by using apt-get install ia32-libs. Its basically because of some incompatibility.

Thanks.
