Hi:

I am running the KDE Plasmashell desktop, but it has memory leaks and eventually I will run out of system memory.

If I logout, I will lose certain running jobs, which I really want to keep running.

However if I start a shell, and do the %jobs -l command, nothing is there, so I cannot use %disown -r command nor prepend nohup in front of some command line execution with a background exec &.

Just how can I attach a nohup to certain running pids, such that if I have to logout of the desktop session, these jobs still keep running?

So far, the examples I have seen of nohup and disown, assume that one has a current shell open. They don't discuss what happens after the fact?

Currently, if I logout of the desktop session, or restart the desktop, I lose the running programs.

Any idea on how to stop this?
