Try killing the bash process itself. If that doesn't work, keep following the trail up until you reach 1. There seems to be a parent process of that bash process. -- Kind regards, Loong Jin -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to banshee in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1196828 Title: Cannot restart banshee after crash Status in “banshee” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: If banshee crashes the sound/audio system menu still shows it as available but nothing happens if I click on it. With ps I can see a defunct banshee process that cannot be removed. If I try to run banshee from the command line nothing happens. Restarting gdm and/or unity also has no effect. As far as I can tell there is now no way to start banshee short of rebooting which is annoying. Does anyone know how I can start banshee without closing everything down and rebooting? Perhaps there is some part of Ubuntu that controls the sound menu and I can restart that? I was hoping it was part of gdm or unity but restarting them didn't help.
