Hi
I noticed there were some people stating that they couldn't get GDB
to recognise there core file. I had the same problem and have since
solved it by updating the GDB I was using.
What i had : gdb 4.14, linux 2.0.0
what i got now : gdb 5.15.1 same linux
I found the enw version for gdb on the debian/linux site and it takes
a bit of work getting it and getting it out of the debian packet and
in to get it to run if your not using debian/linux (ie your using
slackware). But it was worth it and now i get recognised cores and
can start uncommenting out the core dumb bits and fixing them.
Hope this helps some people, feel free to mail me if you require more
information.
