Now, the great thing would be to have this included in xmon with the bootloader beeing able to load the System.map along with the kernel. I think Cort already "prepared" for this in 2.3.x. Another thing that would be useful: Currently, xmon works in "on-screen" mode on all PMU-based machines. It would probably be easy to add this capability to CUDA and other PS/2 like machines. It would be a bit more difficult for the USB keyboards since a special polling routine should be added to the OHCI driver, but since the new macs lacks serial ports... ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.
