[Cooker] killall doesn't kill processes?

[Crispin Boylan]

Hi

For a while now killall has been doing nothing when you try to execute 
it on a process, for example

I load up a kate process, then in a terminal type killall kate and get 
the response 'no processes killed', even though kate is right there in 
top running away!?

its annoying because it means I have to close down pppd using top 
everytime i reboot or shutdown otherwise the conexant adsl modem won't 
let the system shutdown properly (driver bug but there's no newer drivers)
