Where do I go for help on gdb? I've been through the crappy info pages a cadgillion times, and I can't get the simplest answer: I get a Floating Exception when I run a program I compiled with gcc. When I run with gdb, all it tells me is: Program received signal 8, Floating Point Exception. 0x112cd in _IO_dtoa () (gdb) Okay? So what does this mean? And where the heck would I *FIND OUT* what the heck it means? And how do I get this crazy thing to just simply tell me what function it's stopping in? ARGHHHH!!!!!!!!!! I ask it for info float, and it says "No information on this machine's processor." Great. And the help for gnu seems to organize information around *their* answers, *not* around *my* questions. -- Jeff Stern <jstern@eclectic.ss.uci.edu>
