I did that Now I see some ACK messages on my system.
At this point I continue with the following commands:
>gdb b main
>gdb cont
>gdb n  
The above line no matter how many times I type does not work. And
anytime
I type "where" still shows the "main" statement. It seems the program
never
Starts...
Please help.
