 Hi,
 
 Thanks very much for the info. 
 
 Yes, we had stupidly picked up a .gdbinit from an example toolset, which had
 in it :- 
 set output-radix 16
 set input-radix 16
 
 As you may have guessed we are a bit green at all this GNU stuff and we were
 just wondering if you could expand on the port problem i.e. what is HEAD? We
 also have the same problem with Insight6.1.
 
 Many Thamks
 
 Ian and Mike

 State-Changed-When: Wed Aug  4 14:53:09 2004
 State-Changed-Why:
     If you must enter baud rates as hex values, someone has issued a command
 to gdb to set the input radix to hex (set input-radix 16). I do not
 recommend doing this. There are probably dozens of other places where this
 could cause problems. [This was probably done in a user startup script
 ~/gdbtk.ini or ~/.gdbtkinit.]
     
     The port problem thing is fixed in HEAD. I recommend grabbing
 src/gdb/gdbtk/library/targetselection.itb from there.
