Last night I started up gmplayer after [probably] not closing down mplayer correctly. (All done from the command line) So mplayer came up complaining about lacking some library and the panel was a blacked-out shadow of the panel. I couldn't click anywhere on the display area or panel. When I click "X" to close it, it doesn't close. So then I type:
and get a list of processes. gmplayer is 1473 and mplayer isn't on there.
So I type:
Nothing happens!
It's still there. I tried this as my user name because that's how I started it up. I would try it as root, but when I type
as root, it doesn't show up there so I'm not sure what consquences would come from trying it as root. I'm sure I could fix this by rebooting, but I would like to learn how to do this for the future.
Thanks,
