GDB + VisionICE?

GDB + VisionICE?

[Peter Desnoyers]

[this is a resend - I sent it with an incorrect from: address, and it
didn't make it to the list]

Has anyone configured GDB to work with a VisionICE II for a powerpc
target?It looks like the remote-est target is close, but only works
for m68k targets.  It might not be much work to adapt it for powerpc,
which leads to the second question:

Is this a pointless exercise due to the lack of VisionICE support for
the
MMU, or would it be worthwhile?

Thanks,

I would contact your wrs fae. I've heard through the grapevine that some
beta firmware exists (it may be released firmware now) that supports the
MMU. I couldn't find it in my mail but it was something like:
MMU=LINUX

It might be worth exploring. I've also had good luck with the AMC PowerTAP
product as well. But that's neither here nor there.
