I've been poking around without lots of success.

I'm looking for the right tool chain to use to develop software for a TI
LM3S811, hosting on Linux. This would be distributed as a training
tool, so its almost essential to be able to do this with all
free-as-in-beer software, and highly desirable that it be open source as
it would eliminate tracking down any of those nasty "you can use this
but you can't distribute it" clauses that often come with
free-as-in-beer software.

Are there any web pages that bring together using the gcc toolchain with
an OpenOCD debugger, under Linux, to develop for the Cortex M3?

Web searches are bringing me lots of noise, with almost no* useful
signal so far.

* There's one company that has tools based on gcc, but if they are
complying with the Gnu license to make the source available, it's well
hidden.

Yes, we did use openOCD for the LM3S811 on a linux server, driven by
window stations. We were too lazy to do the libusb interface on
window and gui on linux. But you can also run the gui interface on
wine.
