Use 'pgrep [-u UID/USERNAME] pattern' or adjust ps output to only display what interests you, e.g.: $ ps -eo pid,cmd $ ps -eo pid,cmd | awk '$2 ~ /pattern/ { print $1; }' $ ps -eo pid,cmd | awk '$2 == "string" { print $1; }' etc. Or try 'pidof' (which needs the exact command-name and might return mismatches).
