Help eclipse not finding sdk

myjavaapp

Lurker
I have Linux mint 17(Ubuntu). I did install java1.7 with jre successful. I then installed eclipse newest version. Eclipse runs fine and I did create a small java program. Which also runs fine. I then installed android-sdk-linux r24.x and untarred successfully in opt/android-sdk-linux. Followed the steps to append that path in etc/profile like so: PATH DEFAULT=${PATH}:/opt/android-sdk-linux/tools and again same line except tools I used platform. I have no internet at home so did all that manually offline. So now in eclipse i went to help>install new software click on add that opens up a small window that let's me search for android-sdk-linux. I click on it and it inputs the path file:/opt/android-sdk-linux I then click o.k on the bottom just to get "can't find file:/opt/android-sdk-linux". When going in eclipse to windows>preferences there is no android to b found anywhere. I realize that in sdk the folders addon and platforms is empty since I have no Internet at home. But eclipse should still find sdk,right? I just want to develope this little app for my android phone. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
 
Anybody reading my QUESTION? Somewhere in the forum somebody claims that sdk ain't working with eclipse 3.6! Only with 3.5 on linux ubuntu. Im on linux mint 17(ubuntu).Wonder if that's true? I'm not quite sure of eclipse version since I'm not home. In a cafe for Internet. I'll check when I get back home and update tomorrow at work. That's when I have Internet again.
Thanks
NHG
