Re: gdb/gdbserver TQM885

I have a problem on debugging my target board TQM885 (ELDK, Linux

...

Host running gdb:
oparz@linux:~/autoconf_tests/hello_GNU-0.1> gdb ./hello_GNU
GNU gdb 6.3

That's wrong. You cannot use a native x86 GDB to debug a PowerPC
system.

Remote sent bad register number 40: 3000ef14;
Packet: 'T0501:7ffffed0;40:3000ef14;'

Here it's telling you that it has problems to understand the other
architecture.

Any help is very appreciated

Use the ppc_8xx-gdb that comes with the ELDK instead. And make sure to
read the DULG, especially the hints about setting
solib-absolute-prefix
