Hi, I'm trying to use kgdb in emacs on Freebsd V6.2. I'm able to use kgdb on the command line like this kgdb -r /dev/cuad0 kernel.debug. In 6.2 there is no gdb -k, only kgdb. But when I run it in emacs. M-x gdb Run gdb ( like this ) : kgdb -r /dev/cuad0 kernel.debug I get : Current directory is /dev/ kgdb: multiple core files specified. Ignored kgdb: d: No such file or directory. Debugger exited abnormally with code 1 Why is emacs even interpretting my commands. Why doesn't it just call kgdb with whatever arguments I give ?
