You can use plain gdb or any UI built on top of gdb to trace a program. Nemiver provides an UI for gdb. In order to see the symbols, install the packages with the debugging information. For example, Evince (the document viewer) package in Ubuntu is called 'evince', but there is also one called 'evince-dbg'. You the latest one. -- Germán Poo-Caamaño http://calcifer.org/ _______________________________________________ gnome-love mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-love
