What does gdb -v say? (Need to know host and target)

In general, if you are using Insight on unix, all terminal i/o will go to
the controlling terminal (and yes, you must have one, so you cannot
background Insight in this case). Alternatively, you could use the Run
button and File->Target Settings... to select "Use xterm as inferior's
tty". Then you should be able to use Insight without a cntrolling
terminal.

On Windows, you'll get the command shell when you your application, so
that will behave the same as the "use xterm for inferior's tty" case for
unix. (I think! ;-)
