Re: How to kill a process which refuses to be killed && a bit more



Hi,
   I am sorry I do not have anything to say by way of addressing your
problem. I would however like to say that I have experienced the same
problems (without the error messages, using the same kernel). It happened
after Lynx hung and again when I exited mc (midnight-commander) whilst I
was editing its ext file... Another problem I think that I should mention
is that when I try to suspend jed whilst running gpm (started prior to
starting jed) I get an access denied message. Even after I kill gpm that
jed session still cannot be suspended (it works fine otherwise) .

... I wonder, if anyone else has these problems??
