HI!
Learn AT&T syntax properly. gdb uses this.
I don't think there are any tutorials on gdb. The info pages are pretty
informative.
However you might try some hackers magazines like phrack, which have
tutorials on how to hack. They use gdb extensively for hacking. Some
tutorials even begin with a short tutorials of gdb.
Best of luck
