Notes:
1. The version of this document in the product distribution is a snapshot. For the latest information, see the PDF version on the TotalView documentation page on the Rogue Wave web site.
2. If you are using one of the compilers listed here and its version is not listed, you will usually be able to debug your programs. We will be happy to assist you if problems occur.
3. For additional information on platforms, see the TotalView 8.11 Release Notes at http:// www.roguewave.com/support/product-documentation/totalview.aspx.
4. X Windows is required on all platforms to run the TotalView and MemoryScape GUIs. Systems used for remote debugging, i.e. those running only the TotalView Server, do not need X Windows installed.

Heterogeneous and Cross-Debugging
Several forms of heterogeneous debugging are supported, where the operating system and/or architecture differ.
For example, from a Linux x86-64 session you can debug remote processes on Linux Cell.

Other Linux x86 Computers
TotalView is tested using Red Hat and SuSe Linux, TotalView should not fail on other Linux x86-based systems.
 
The TotalView executable image uses the following dynamic libraries:
libX11.so.6
libm.so.6
libutil.so.1
libdl.so.2
libc.so.6
 
We would be interested to hear about your experiences in using TotalView on other Linux distributions.
 
Other Linux Hints
 
If you have source code for Linux run time libraries available on your system, TotalView should be able to display this code provided that it appears in the directory from which its debug information claims that it was compiled. On Red Hat systems, this is /usr/src/bs/BUILD; other systems may vary. Since the source RPMS on Red Hat installs sources under /usr/src/redhat/BUILD, a simple symbolic link so that /usr/src/redhat also appears as /usr/src/bs is all that is required.
 
To work out where your library sources claim to have been compiled you should do the following:
 
objdump --stabs library_of_interest | grep SO | head -5
 
Here’s an example:
% objdump --stabs /lib/libc.so.6 | grep SO | head -5
0 SO 0 0 0000000000017a10 9 /usr/src/bs/BUILD/glibc/ elf/
1 SO 0 0 0000000000017a10 0 soinit.c
96 SO 0 0 0000000000017a58 954
97 SO 0 0 0000000000017a60 2340 /usr/src/bs/BUILD/glibc/csu/
98 SO 0 0 0000000000017a60 2369 ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/init-first.c
 
Here you can see that the library was compiled from /usr/src/bs.
