When target processor paused the debugger loses it's connection

[Crustacean]

Hello,

I am trying to develop an application targeting an MCF51JM128 coldfire 1 microcontroller and am having problems with the debugger losing the connection to the target board when I pause the program to look at the registers' values.  I am using codewarrior 10.1 build ID: 110204 on a Ubuntu 11.04 system using a PE Cyclone PRO through Ethernet.  The disconnects only seem to happen when the debugger is paused, although it does not spend more than a handful of seconds in run mode.  I would use the USB connection, but am unable to get the USB drivers to compile.  Anyone have any ideas?

Is the micro configured correctly? It's possible to set things up so that the debugger can halt/reset & program the CPU but not actually pause & debug.

As a little clarification, it does not disconnect when I hit a breakpoint or I stop the program, it is when I try to look at a variable or a register.  I havle looked around and cannot find much about how to configure the chip for debugging, other than if it is set to be secure debugging does not work.  Is there a setting in the eclipse environment that sets the secure bit?  As I remember, the secure bit is set when you are building the image to store on the Cyclone. 

I have the clock setup in PEE mode to do USB, and in fact, the clock setup and chip setup were taken from a project I developed on a winxp box with very little trouble in debugging.

Any hints on where to look?
