Oops. My bad.
What operating system is the r3900 running?
Yes its linux. kernel v2.4.0-test1-acc22
From the list name, I assume it's Linux/MIPS. So why did you configure for mips-idt-ecoff?Hmmmmm. Good question. The gdb docs say I have to if I want to use the MIPS remote debugging protocol.
I did try --target=mipsel-elf-linux and --target-mipsel-linux. I got the following targets:
(gdb) help target Connect to a target machine or process. The first argument is the type or protocol of the target machine. Remaining arguments are interpreted by the target protocol. For more information on the arguments for a particular protocol, type `help target ' followed by the protocol name.
List of target subcommands:
target async -- Use a remote computer via a serial line target cisco -- Use a remote machine via TCP target core -- Use a core file as a target target exec -- Use an executable file as a target target extended-async -- Use a remote computer via a serial line target extended-remote -- Use a remote computer via a serial line target remote -- Use a remote computer via a serial line target sim -- Use the compiled-in simulator
I figured mips should show up, so I guessed they were incorrect. Even so, I tried connecting with both and got the same results:
(gdb) target async /dev/ttyUSB0
Remote debugging using /dev/ttyUSB0

Any idea what that all means?
If you're using gdbserver, then you want target=mips-linux and "target remote", not "target mips".
I'm not using gdbserver. It won't fit on my pda if I include kaffe and its associated files.
