You shouldn't have to use Google as the Emacs manual is included in the Emacs
tarball, so it should be on your system unless Suse package documentation
separately like Debian.

That's odd because Emacs 21.x looked like this but Emacs 22.1 should look
like:

Run gdb (like this):
gdb --annotate=3 /home/chris/mydata/Projects/SimSoup/simsoup-cpp/simsoup/simsoup

I've not used ECB but I have read a comment in ecb-compatibility.el that says
that gdb-ui.el's use of dedicated windows might conflict with ECB's so it's
possible that they have configured Emacs to just use text mode.  However, even
in this case Emacs 22.1 should look like this:

Run gdb (like this):
gdb --fullname /home/chris/mydata/Projects/SimSoup/simsoup-cpp/simsoup/simsoup

or this:

Run gdb (like this):
gdb --annotate=1 /home/chris/mydata/Projects/SimSoup/simsoup-cpp/simsoup/simsoup

What value does gud-gdb-command-name have?

I have recently started using Emacs for my C++ project, and have got ECB
working so that I can browse my code easily.

One thing that is not working properly is Gud. I gan start gdb, and I get
standard text debugging, but none of the graphical features (eg breakpoints
in the fringe).  I did a bit of Googling and on the basis of that setup the
following (via the 'options' menu):-

(gdb-many-windows t)
(gdb-show-main t)

However, graphical debugging is still not working. Can anyone help?
