Hello all:

I have worked on getting some things cleaned up in my kernel and rfs to
ensure I was not running out of ramdisk space on my arm development board. I
am confident that part is okay now, but still getting a segmentation fault
when I try to run my application. Using gdb, I still get:

--snip--
/usr/sbin $ gdb grh_audio


dlopen failed on 'libthread_db.so.1' - File not found
GDB will not be able to debug pthreads.

GNU gdb 6.5

GDB is free software, covered by the GNU General Public License, and you are
welcome to change it and/or distribute copies of it under certain
conditions.
Type "show copying" to see the conditions.
There is absolutely no warranty for GDB.  Type "show warranty" for details.
This GDB was configured as "arm-linux-uclibc"...
(gdb) start
Breakpoint 1 at 0x8a4c: file grh_audio.c, line 32.
Starting program: /usr/sbin/grh_audio
Using host libthread_db library "libthread_db.so.1".
Segmentation fault
--snip--

Not sure what the problem is. I have the alsa libs configured as they are
supposed to. I assume that the problem has to do with the alsa-libs, but I
have been successful in getting aplay to work.

Any suggestions?
