How long did you wait? The sourceforge server has its moments where it is not very responsive. > I try: > sudo kill 301 (or whatever the pid is) You are too polite. A simple 'kill' is just a suggestion, not an order. You should say sudo kill -KILL 301 or, what is the same thing sudo kill -9 301 See "man kill". This will stop 99.9% of all processes. In the rare case of a zombie process that is really unkillable (marked "Z" in the STAT column of the ps output), a reboot might be in order. -- Martin _______________________________________________ Fink-beginners mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-beginners
