As of now I have installed the latest version of gdb via the package manager (7.9.1). The binary gets installed as /usr/local/bin/gdb which is apparently a symlink to /usr/local/bin/gdb791. The version which comes with the system is at /usr/bin/gdb which is an older version (v6.1.1). I have modified my path to have /usr/local/bin precede /usr/bin such that typing GDB on the prompt opens the latest version. However KGDB still refers to the older version of GDB. Is there a way to make KGDB refer to the newer version? Or do I have to remove it altogether and build it myself from the ports? I just want KGDB to refer to the newer version of GDB that I have on my system -- Best Regards, Aijaz Baig
