Lines: 26 Message-ID: <4pl8vn$7sj@murphy2.servtech.com> Reply-To: housley@pr-comm.com (James Housley) NNTP-Posting-Host: prcomm.roc.servtech.com X-Newsreader: IBM NewsReader/2 v1.2.5 Xref: euryale.cc.adfa.oz.au comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc:21092 comp.sys.m68k:8534 I have some experience with Unix and FreeBSD, little with the SysV style of Linux. I would like to use the gbd-bdm interface. The gdb-bdm is a device driver for GNU gdb that interfaces to the parallel port dongle for Background Debugging of Motorola 683xx processors. The software I found has two parts. 1) A module that adds on to gdb -- no problems here! 2) A kernel based device driver -- BIG problems here. I am having lots of trouble compiling it for FreeBSD. Can't find all the header files and functions. Is there hope? Should I install Linux in stead? I haven't install FreeBSD yet at work, but will have to install something soon. --- James E.
