Xilinx won't support officially any Linux related issues (I used to work in= the support center and Linux cases were the easy cases: sorry not supporte= d) So the Microblaze support in GDB 7.2 is for debugging standalone applicatio= ns together with XMD only or would it work together with a cross-compiled g= db server? Embedded distributors like bluecat or petalogix have ported GDB for Linux o= n Microblaze but the free old versions (at least from petalogix) had quite = an old GDB + gdbserver which didn't work properly (slow and crashes when em= bedding them in an eclipse environment) So do you have any hints for me how to proceed to get a new GDB + gdbserver= up?

Hi Marco -- I support the MicroBlaze tools, but only the non-Linux versions. You should contact Xilinx Technical Support with your questions. --=20 Michael Eager eager@eagercon.com 1960 Park Blvd., Palo Alto, CA 94306 650-325-8077
