Chuck, Thanks for the suggestion. I can't figure out how to get that to work... $ gdb --exec=firefox3 This GDB was configured as "i386-marcel-freebsd"."/usr/local/bin/firefox3": not in executable format: File format not recognized $ gdb --exec=firefox-bin This GDB was configured as "i386-marcel-freebsd"...firefox-bin: No such file or directory. or $ gdb firefox3 This GDB was configured as "i386-marcel-freebsd"..."/usr/local/bin/firefox3": not in executable format: File format not recognized It doesn't seem that gdb thinks firefox is an executable... I'm not seeing what I'm missing from the man page. I can get it to pick up the process once it is running: $ gdb firefox3 9759 This GDB was configured as "i386-marcel-freebsd"..."/usr/local/bin/firefox3": not in executable format: File format not recognized Attaching to process 9759 /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/gdb/libgdb/../../../../contrib/gdb/gdb/solib-svr4.c:1443: internal-error: legacy_fetch_link_map_offsets called without legacy link_map support enabled. A problem internal to GDB has been detected, further debugging may prove unreliable. Quit this debugging session?

A problem internal to GDB has been detected, further debugging may prove unreliable. Create a core file of GDB?

Program terminated with signal 6, Aborted. #0 0x283e8e17 in ?? () So, how do I get FF to run under gdb? or does the above provide enough information to try a fix?
