Actually, that doesn't work either. Qt Creator launches my application under the gdb-su, but it can't communicate for some reason. When I try to pause the app, it fails to pause, and the debugger window shows:
State changed from InferiorRunning(10) to InferiorStopping(11). sStop requested... dTRYING TO INTERRUPT INFERIOR dCANNOT INTERRUPT 32147 My reference is that if I launch qt creator as root, all the debugging runs smoothly.
