Hi Patrick, In a console as a user is fine, run top $ top it will display a dynamic list of processes. In the left hand column look for the PID which is allocated to gpilotd eg 4782 and run kill, thus: $ k4782 (within top you only need k not kill) and then confirm by hitting enter twice gpilotd will disappear from the list of running processes close the console.
