The gdbserver didn't work. It crashed. But gdb on the device itself (in
an xterm), however does work. Pity it's a little bit difficult because
my ui's are always full screen. But I'll manage.

Thanks for these packages, whoever made them. This is really helping me.

Tapping "u p" and "d o w n" now :)
