I had assumed, possibly incorrectly, that you *KNEW* that using gdb to adjust the signal handling for SIGSTOP, SIGSEGV and SIGUSR1 would allow HL2.exe to run successfully. I have not and will not offer advice on using gdb since I don't use it myself, except for this point: altering the behaviour of the SIGSEGV handler is not a good idea since that traps memory segmentation faults, i.e. program crashes due to trying to address memory outside itself. Have you done this gdb procedure manually and had HL2.exe run correctly as a result? If not, there's little point in trying to script something that doesn't work when you type it by hand. If you have had it work using manual command line input, please post a screen dump via pastebin that shows the commands you issued and the responses made by gdb and your program. I also want to see proof that gdb is reading the symbol table from HL2.exe. The reason I'm asking to see this output is because the only fragment of gdb output I can find in this thread was in a post from Jake, which shows gdb reading the symbol table of the Wine preloader. That symbol table has nothing whatsoever to do with HL2.exe Once we've seen the manually entered sequence of commands that cause HL2.exe to run correctly we can advise on how to script it. Martin
