This problem exists in 12.04 "Precise" as well. And no matter how much you kill it, it keeps coming back. The process shows init as its parent: rifter 5626 1 14 15:05 ? 00:00:48 yelp ghelp:///usr/share/gnome/help/gnome-terminal/C/gnome-terminal.xml
The only way to stop it seems to be to kill the terminal, for some reason. highly frustrating. I'm using the 64 bit AMD version of Precise, btw. dpkg -l | grep yelp ii libyelp0 3.4.1-0ubuntu1 Library for the GNOME help browser ii yelp 3.4.1-0ubuntu1 Help browser for GNOME ii yelp-xsl 3.4.1-1 XSL stylesheets for the yelp help browser uname -a Linux leviathan 3.2.0-37-generic #58-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jan 24 15:28:10 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to yelp in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/914889 Title: F1 - Help / yelp / ghelp is looping, Ubuntu 11.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/yelp/+bug/914889/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
