I am running an ncurses C++ program under GDB from within Emacs for a programming assignment at school. I use the following trick to get the console output redirected to an xterm so that the ncurses stuff works:
http://cdw.sourceforge.net/documentation/emacs_gdb_ncurses/emacs_gdb_ncurses.en.html#cleaning_upa The problem is that I have to log into an xfce4 desktop environment to get this to work. If I try it from stumpwm, I get the following message in the xterm when GDB tries to send output to it: warning: GDB: Failed to set controlling terminal: Operation not permitted All things are equal except that in one case I am running xfce4, and in the other case I am running stumpwm. I am running stumpwm from the saved image that is built by the makefile, and I am using SBCL. Any ideas how I can get past this problem?
