Uhm, 'standard' kill -9 ??

You should only use kill -9 as a last resort, as it does not allow the
kernel to clean up after the process. This can actually screw up your
system in the worst case.
Recommended is just 'kill' first, which sends the TERM signal, and if
that doesn't work then 'kill -KILL'.

That's a question you should ask on a Slackware mailing list if you
