Fellow petsc users, I am trying to start my program in gdb, using the options
-start_in_debugger -debug_terminal "screen -X -S debug screen" where I have a running screen named debug. If I run with e.g. -np 4, all 4 processes report that they are being attached by gdb, but in the screen session only 2 new windows show up. If I run with -np 2, only 1 new window shows up. If I de-attach these windows by quitting gdb, the program runs. On the other hand, if I use "xterm -e", all of the xterms pop up. Any ideas? John
