Hi all,
I'm using Intel's Fortran compiler and debugger on OpenSUSE 10.2 (well, at least I'm trying to...)
The compiler works fine, but the debugger does not. When running idb, I get the following error:
Reading symbolic information from /home/foo/name...done Could not load symbols for /home/foo/name ... Recovering ...
I've checked the Intel support forums, and I've happened across the following request:

You should be able to download the IDB manual from Intel.
That said, /home/foo/name should have been compiled and linked with
debug (-g). You also need to make sure that you source idbvars.sh (or
idbvars.csh) before you try to debug. The syntax for idb is different
than gdb (it is much more dbx-like). You may also need to specifically
point to your source modules. (I don't have any of the IDB stuff at
hand, and I would need to log into an Itanium system reasonably distant
to look at my debugging environment. Additionally, there is a
compilation flag, -debug-extended, that you may also want to use.
