The best documentation on using GNU GDB is in the user manual that is here: http://www.gnu.org/s/gdb/documentation/ For Unity you might like to be able to attach to the running Unity which involves a slight trick: gdb /usr/bin/compiz -p `pidof compiz` But remember, if you attach to your running window manager and you break, you have no window management. Sometimes it's better to run that in a virtual terminal. --Ted
