How to use the new GPU accelerated avd?

Issue

Google has announced that the Android emulator finally uses the GPU, as written here

However, I can't find a tutorial of how to use it. I've tried to do some things and it just keeps crashing.

So far , I've tried to :

1. Install the app on "...\extras\intel\Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager\IntelHaxm.exe".

   2. Enable/disable the flag on GPU emulation for the avd.

   3. Restart eclipse and OS .

Is there anyone who have succeeded working with the new feature?

Solution

The GPU emulation doesn't work very well at the moment:

I also didn't manage to run it due to the crash.

A simple instruction of how to turn it on can be found here: https://plus.google.com/108967384991768947849/posts/DSi3oAuNnS7
