Thank you! It´s working fine now. I tested just stdout with printf(), and it
worked fine. Puhh! It took me three looong days to get the gnu-tool-chain
say "Hello world" on my ARM processor. Hard work!
I have some smaller questions:
* How can I make insight remember my target settings?
(ARM Angel/serial, baud rate,...)
I tried to use a faster communication to the board with
stty 38400 < /dev/ttyS1
and in target settings baud rate: 38400
Didn´t work! ?
* I think I will have to replace the Angel interrupt routine with my own
and forward calls from the serial link to the old one. Ok, I will read
through all the doc about Angel in ARM DUI 0040D Chapter 13,
everything else wich will be necessary.
But can I come back, when I`m stuck too deeply? :-)
* An other stupid question: What time difference is between Hamburg
and Toronto (plus or minus?) And what difference between Toronto
and Silicon Valley?

It is in the current sources (out of cvs). gdb 5.0 release didn't have it, it seems.
Jens, maybe you should get yourself the gdb sources out of cvs while gdb 5.1 is
not released. This way you get all the bug fixes that were made for ARM and Insight
after 5.0.
