Better to type: ps aux | grep cinelerra and save your eyeballs. Or try "pkill cinelerra" if you have pkill. Also, if a plain kill doesn't free things up, try "kill -9 xxxx" or "pkill -9 cinelerra". -- Geoff Kuenning [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.cs.hmc.edu/~geoff/ One could not be a successful scientist without realizing that, in contrast to the popular conception supported by newspapers and mothers of scientists, a goodly number of scientists are not only narrow-minded and dull, but also just stupid. -- James Watson _______________________________________________ Cinelerra mailing list Cinelerra@skolelinux.no https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra
