Linux/CC2538DK: GDB Agent Console

Part Number: CC2538DK

Tool/software: Linux

Hello,

i would like to debug the cc2538 with gdb, but the guide to do so is written for UniFlash 3 (current is UniFlash 4). 

The first problem was that UniFlash 3 brought the gdb_agent_console executable with it, while UniFlash 4 didn't. I solved this problem by downloading the Standalone Emulation pack which includes the required executable. The next Problem was to aquire a correct .dat (configuration?) file for the gdb_agent_console. I acquired it from the project archive linked in the CC2538 Debugging Guide. My final Problem is as follows:

when i try to start "./gdb_agent_console cc2538nf53.dat" i recieve an error message that tells me something like "No cpu that supports gdb has been specified in config." 

Im not sure if this message is related to the .dat file or something else i miss or did wrong. I also tried installing UniFlash 3, but failed to do so because some 32bit libraries were missing and the installer segfaulted repeatedly.

I know i can debug from Code Composer Studio 7, this works, but i would like to start the gdb_agent_console from command line and use arm-none-eabi-gdb to debug from there. (By the way i am using Ubuntu 14 64bit as system.)

Could someone help me please?
