Hey Aaron,
I run the pstree command and found that it was:
kdeinit ___ artsnd
|
|__autorun__14kfmclient
|
|__mount
I know that kdeinit has to do with my kde desktop running. I also know
that artsnd controls my sound server which I don't even know that I
need. The autorun thingy is what allows some sort of autodetection of
removable media such as cds. Now kfmclient I'm not sure why it's being
started at this point - together with mount.
The only way I was able to control it before the system reached 50cpu
loads was to kill autorun - I guess when you kill the parent, you kill
the family eh?
Anyways thanks for the suggestion. I can controll it but I still have to
figure out why this is happening the way it is...
Rafael.
