i want the task manger thing for linux

What task manager? Normally, you either use xkill or kill the pid of the offending program.

And you could try using meaningful thread titles - anyone trying to search for your problem, or even view the threads, will come up blank against your title.

in a terminal, type

ps aux

to list all running processes. you can use the "kill" command to stop them.

If you are using KDE then you could use ksysguard =)

right click on a panel add an applet>action>force quit
When you need to force quit, clink on that icon, and then the window you want closed.

In SuSE 9.0 I got a CTRL+ALT+DEL type box after pressing CTRL+ESC (KDE)

If you're looking for a graphical comparison to Window$ Task Manager, and using the GNOME X interface, look in the menu under System Tools -> System Monitor - it has the little graph of CPU usage, swap file usage, and a tab that shows processes.
