I asked this question before, but I think I have some more info. first a resume. When Valgrind (valgrind-3.3.0-Debian) stops and ask to start the debugger, when you say 'y' the gdb debugger starts.
However gdb claims that the program it is requested to debug is already being debugged. So I wonder if the PID that is passed to gdb is the correct process. So, when valgrind says ==2000== starting debugger with cmd: /usr/bin/gdb -nw /proc/2006/fd/1014 2006 GNU gdb 6.8-debian Copyright (C) 2008 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
