adb, ubuntu and sm-p901

[nyxee]

I am having serious trouble connecting my Samsung Galaxy Note PRO 12.2" (SM-P901) to adb on Ubuntu 14.04.

I have the latest Android SDK, This happened when I had Android 4.4 installed, and also now when I have Android 5.0.2 installed. I uninstalled

android-tools-{adb, fastboot, etc}

to ensure I have only SDK tools, My Galaxy Note 8.0 (GT-N5100) is working fine with adb and IntelliJ IDEA, I can see my photos perfectly for both tablets, both tablets were recognized perfectly from a windows host machine. My VMware XP client can also recognize only the GT-N5100 via

adb devices
