Try the following:

    1.  Go to the top-level LDM source-directory.

    2.  Execute the command "make distclean"

    3.  Set the environment variable CFLAGS to "-g" (without the
        quotes).

    4.  Rebuild the LDM package.

    5.  Stop the LDM.

    6.  Reinstall the LDM package.

    7.  Ensure that core dumps are allowed, e.g.,

            ulimit -c unlimited

        The exact form depends on your user-shell.

    8.  Start the LDM.
