mandrake 9
 

Sorry for most for you stupid questions,but how can i see in KDE what is currently running.Or what command shows that somehow friendly.So i can be sure that my firewall is up and running.

I apologize for stupid questions like that but can't find it.

Thanks a lot,and probably see you soon because you helping a lot !!!!

Here you go.
 

Try this: ControlCenter (like start in windoze)/Applications/Monitoring/KDE System Guard. Click on the 'Process" tab and you should see all the processes that are running. Be ready, there will likely be a lot.
There are a lot of monitoring tools there to. Disk space, memory etc.

Hope this helps.

:D :D :D :D

What 'stupid' question were you talking about?

edit: misspelled a word. Drat that makes me :mad: :mad:
I can't spell spit.

No such thing as a stupid question

You can also use command line, bring up a Konsole window and type

ps -ef

This will list all running processes. You can also add to that grep to only see a process with the name your looking for it would look like this if your firewall process was called shorewall

ps -ef | grep shorewall

Yep
 

"top" would work in command line to. It also includes other neat info. But since he was new and wanted a GUI type thing, I suggested that one. Let him get his feet wet a bit first.
Actually 'top' seems to be more accurate. I have noticed a difference in reporting memory. :scratch: :scratch:


:D :D :D

thanks a lot
 

Thanks for help!
Both varietes works perfect.yea there is a lot thinks running but I'm sure not getting RAM so much as XPs on my other computer.
There will be one omre question.When I was installing Madrake,it was asking if i'd like to install Apache server too.I set it up as "yes".But i probably need to set it up,right?it won't work itself?
I'll look at Apache web page and here somewhere to find it.

Thanks again,
