kimothy Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Im wondering if you could force programs to exit, in the same way you do when youre in windows and push the buttons Ctrl+Alt+Delete???

arctic Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 several options: run the command xkill and click on the app you want to quit. second alternative: crtl+alt+backspace will quit your current session and get you back to the login prompt.

scoopy Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I like using Ctrl+Esc to bring up a "task manager" of your running processes. With this you can then "kill" the process that has frozen up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lärs Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 You can also do type the following: ps -aux at a command prompt to see all processes running. Then you can use killall with the program you wish to close. Example: killall kdeinit . Of course, this is the oldschool command prompt way to do this sort of thing :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
