What version of DJGPP did you get on the GNU CD?  Visit
ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/ for the latest versions of
all DJGPP programs.

There are three debuggers available for DJGPP:

  gdb (v2gnu/gdb416b.zip)
	Source level C and C++ debugger.  Command line interface.

  fsdb (comes in v2/djdev201.zip)
	Low-level debugger.  Windowed interface.  Supports display
	of C and C++ source along with assembly code.
	A patched version exists that supports graphics debugging.

  edebug32 (comes in v2/djdev201.zip)
	Low level debugger.  Command line interface.  Supports
	display of C and (AFAIK) C++ source along with assembly code.

The functionality of gdb has also been incorporated into the latest
version of RHIDE 1.0, which is a full IDE with a Turbo-C style
interface.  The version on SimTel is not the absolute latest; see
<http://www.tu-chemnitz.de/~rho/rhide.html> for complete information.
