Hi,
from "FreeBSD Developers' Handbook, 10.7 Debugging Loadable Modules Using
GDB":
"...
(kgdb) add-symbol-file /sys/modules/linux/linux.ko 0xc0ae22d0
...
"
Actually I couldn't debug my modules using .ko-file. Moreover, I've find out that .ko files do not contain sections with debugging info. With .kld-file debugging works out. Do I something incorrectly or the info in the Developers Book is outdated? 

regards, 
Alex
