I'm using kgdb and want to debug a module that's causing an oops.

I load up the symbol table for the kernel with gdb -s, but want
to know if it's possible to load the symbol table for the
module as well. It seems gdb wants to discard the symbol table
for the kernel if you try and load the symbol table for the module. I'm
sure people have debugged modules this way before and I'm just missing
something.

I need to load the symbol table for the mod so I can break on the
offending function.
