I know, and I'm looking into this, but I would prefer to support the normal X screen if possible. >I have to ask tho, whats wrong with kgdb? 1.) kgdb I think has to use a kernel patch. 2.) If kgdb is similar to gdb then I don't really like it because the interface sucks. :) 3.) I want to have a decent debugger that can be used for stuff like driver development, but also user space debugging, with a nice interface. 4.)
