Hi Christian, hi all,

I probably should have said that: yes, I am primarily interested in C / C++. I 
think I also forgot to mention the platform I am using: I would really like 
to have a debugger for our own Opteron-system, but since I have access to 
your systems at Aachen, that would work as well (although more slowly ;-) ).

Thanks for the offer. I will contact you in private mail or by phone shortly.

We do not have any windows-machines here and I do not plan to setup another 
development environment as of now. 

Thanks for your answers,
