i try to run with gdb or ddd; the progi doesnt start, but
its running in background.
i am not a program whriter, so i need a little help.
this is what i get 
# Cannot access memory at address 0x806f4f0

i start  # gdb exec xffm or # gdb xffm
and nothing happend
so i start ddd and then run progi, then i get that
message i typed. but xffm dosent starts.

I try to explain the problem with xffm (4.0.2) on SuSE
8.2. the sources are installed.
As root: I fetch a progi from the net: rpm, tar.gz; then
I start xffm (as root, no sudo); then open whith ->
update (rpm) --> same with tar --> its start to compile
(the update or decom works) but i am not able to work
after this with xffm its hang. after restart xffm its
work and the progi i updated is up to date, or tar.gz are
unpacked.
