Problem w/ Debian 4.0 and processes
I just recently did a clean install with Debian 4.0. On my server (no gui, keyboard, mouse just power and NIC0 I have two processes I cannot seem to get rid of that are not needed. I have kpsmoused and kacpid. I have tried killing these processes with a -9 signal and it does nothing. Is there any way I can kill them or even better stop them from loading at boot up. I've tried searching on this and couldn't find a solution. Thanks

Find out which program(s) these services support and remove those. Browse through the /etc/rc directories to find the corresponding startup script.
|
apt-get install rcconf
|
rcconf does not show these services, it only shows a few i have on my system which is odd. anyone else have an idea?

I'm pretty sure that these are kernel processes (or threads, I can't remember). I don't know if there is any way to easily stop them. You might be able to recompile the kernel without acpi and mouse support. Depending on the age of the system, I would think that you would need kacpid. You might be able to get away with not having kpsmoused though, seeing as how you don't have a mouse attached.
The bottom line here is to take all of the above with a grain of salt. I'm not 100% sure of any of it, but I'm pretty sure that I'm in the ballpark. |
