Oh OK. That doesn't bother me. I just ignore it. Heck, it's a process just like anything else. LOL My next plan, I'm going to create three thingys on my desktop. One for each session. I'm hoping that the session will be listed in the command so that at least I know which is which in the ps list. I just got to google up the proper command. Thanks for the help tho. Right now, I'm doing a emerge -e system and plan to start a emerge -e world when I leave in the AM to take my bro to the Doctor. It may not help one dang bit but what the heck. I need to break in this new CPU/cooler grease anyway. ;-) Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ... Not for what you understood or how you interpreted my words!
