Here on Linux, this works automatically, no special setup is required.

Did you compile with -g?

Just in case you really need to select a specific GDB for debugging, follow these steps:

• Run kdbg nameoftheexecutable.
• Select Settings->Global Options.
• Copy the GDB invocation listed in How to invoke GDB.
• Close the dialog.
• Select Settings->This Program.
• Paste the GDB invocation command into How to invoke GDB.
• Adjust the command to invoke the GDB version you need.
