With lsof (emerge sys-process/lsof) you can check if a process is accessing a file. Run it like so: # lsof /proc/acpi/event COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE NODE NAME acpid 2230 root 3r REG 0,3 0 4026531935 /proc/acpi/event > -- > Regards, > Mick > ~Henry -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
