I'm sorry for posting in this old bug, but I'm having this issue with yet another program. See for yourself this sequence of commands:
$ sudo -s # uname -a Linux tacitus 2.6.35-23-generic #41-Ubuntu SMP Wed Nov 24 10:18:49 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux # ps ax | grep amule | grep -v grep 2912 ? R 326:29 amule # kill -9 2912 # kill -9 2912 # ps ax | grep amule | grep -v grep 2912 ? R 326:43 amule # kill -SIGSTOP 2912 # ps ax | grep amule | grep -v grep 2912 ? R 326:52 amule # ps aux | grep amule | grep -v grep jano 2912 82.5 1.0 96156 39396 ? R Dec14 327:26 amule Basically, the process is impervious to two signals that should have some effect. Meanwhile, its window is frozen and it consumes 100% of one CPU. I have several up-to-date maverick machines, and this is the only one exhibiting this problem, so perhaps it is dependent on some hardware component. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/213053 Title: Totem is 'uninterruptible' -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
