Hi,

Following may be helpful:
----------------------------------------------
Host>gdb -v
GNU gdb 5.1

This GDB was configured as "--host=i686-pc-linux-gnu 
--target=armv5tel-hardhat-linux".

Host>gdb myelf.out
(gdb) target remote 192.168.1.2:2345
(gdb) c
.... going well
^C
(gdb) info thread
warning: RMT ERROR : failed to get remote thread list

(gdb)info threads
warning: RMT ERROR : failed to get remote thread list
-----------------------------------------------

So I was using gdb5.1 and "info thread/info threads" get no positive 
feedback.

Any ideas?

Best regards,

Kenny
