how about 'control-z' to suspend it, then 'bg' to restart it in background ? i don't know if subsequently killing the Bash process will kill the job too. there's also the possibility of going to another raw console with 'control-alt-F2' & doing what you want outside X there, then returning with 'control-alt-F7'. these are HTH suggestions: i would be pleased to be further enlightened by others (smile). -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Centre for Urban & Community Studies TRANSIT `-O----------O---' University of Toronto -- [email protected] mailing list
