>Description:
I downloaded, built, and installed insight-6.4 according to instructions on FAQ. Platform: Red Hat WS 3.0, i686-pc-linux-gnu
Start gdb, and it reports "GNU gdb 6.4.0.20051202-cvs". But all I get is the good old text prompt. It does not open any windows!
gdb does not complain about Tcl_init failing. I have no conflicting environment variables. DISPLAY is set properly. I tried starting gdb with -nx option; no different.
Reviewing the build and install log shows no errors (unless they are too subtle for me).
ldd `which gdb` shows:
libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x00795000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00943000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/libm.so.6 (0x00f5f000)
libncurses.so.5 => /usr/lib/libncurses.so.5 (0x004b7000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x00111000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00bc3000)
libgpm.so.1 => /usr/lib/libgpm.so.1 (0x00500000)
How to diagnose this problem?
