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: rifter5626 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 stand corrected. It seems that I can't get rid of yelp by killing the terminal after all. If I could figure out what is respawing it I would kill that. -- 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

Kill -9 does the trick. I had been using xkill and I guess it does not do that. Destroying or closing the window, or using xkill, results in a respawn, but kill -9 from the terminal gets rid of it. -- 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
