Hi,
this has not directly anything to do with blackbox.
but in the recent memory usage hype i also took a
closer look into my ps list and i saw some strange things.
my .xinitrc file looks something like
sleep 1 && bbapp1 &
sleep 2 && bbapp2 &
.
.
.
exec blackbox
now i find for every "sleep" a shell running in my ps list, using
almost 1MB of RAM. This is in addition to the programs bbapp1, bbapp2, ...
the line in `ps aux` output looks like:
marcus 1799 0.0 2.5 1540 784 1 S 20:12 0:00 sh /home/marcus/.xinitrc
if i start my apps without the sleep commandos, these are gone ( leaving me
with a scrambled slit :( ). Can sombody explain this to me. Where do these
shells come from. I am a bit clueless.
