If you reply to this mail, you may wish to trim kdb@oss.sgi.com from the cc: list. Current versions are :- kdb-v4.4-2.6.14-common-1.bz2 kdb-v4.4-2.6.14-i386-1.bz2 kdb-v4.4-2.6.14-ia64-1.bz2 The register display (rd, r) and register modify (rm) commands now work for tasks that were running when MCA/INIT was delivered. There is a small change in the behaviour of rd/rm after you use the pid, btt, btp and btc commands. I recommend that you read the rd and bt man pages in Documentation/kdb, pay attention to KDB's notion of the "current task" when working with registers.
