Actually, strace didn't produce much: # strace -p `pidof rhythmbox` -o rb-strace Process 5937 attached - interrupt to quit Process 5937 detached And ls had a bit more, but still not much: ~ ls -l /proc/`pidof rhythmbox`/fd total 30 lr-x------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 0 -> /dev/null lrwx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 1 -> /dev/null lrwx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 10 -> socket:[28083] lrwx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 11 -> socket:[28087] lrwx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 12 -> socket:[28089] lrwx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 13 -> socket:[28092] lrwx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 14 -> socket:[28096] lrwx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 15 -> socket:[28093] lrwx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 16 -> socket:[28097] lr-x------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 17 -> pipe:[28099] l-wx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 18 -> pipe:[28099] lr-x------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 19 -> pipe:[28100] lrwx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 2 -> /dev/null l-wx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 20 -> pipe:[28100] lr-x------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 21 -> pipe:[28101] l-wx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 22 -> pipe:[28101] lrwx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 23 -> socket:[28102] lrwx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 24 -> socket:[28105] lrwx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 25 -> socket:[28114] lrwx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 26 -> socket:[28141] lr-x------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 27 -> inotify lrwx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 28 -> socket:[30018] lrwx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 3 -> socket:[28078] lr-x------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 32 -> pipe:[30011] lr-x------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 4 -> pipe:[28080] l-wx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 5 -> pipe:[28080] lr-x------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 6 -> pipe:[28081] l-wx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 7 -> pipe:[28081] lr-x------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 8 -> pipe:[28082] l-wx------ 1 andrew andrew 64 2006-08-01 23:15 9 -> pipe:[28082] Any more info you could provide on this would be very helpful; it's rather tedious when it happens.
