Why is the android emulator starting but then dying immediately?

I've installed Android Studio on my Ubuntu 16.04
I've set up a device using the AVD device manager

When I try to start the device the emulator flashes very quickly and then disappears.

I tried several different versions but for all of them the emulator window flashes for a fraction of a second then disappears.enter image description here

How can I get the emulator to work? Where are logs that will show what problem I am having? enter image description here

Solution

  • Try this method: Edit your AVD, then on graphics select Software-GLES instead of Auto.

    Open Android Monitor to see the errors.
