Problem re Mozilla hanging on screen
Hi all folks,
RH9.0 KDE While running Mozilla to browse Yahoo, the screen hanged. # ps x could not find Mozilla there xxx ttys1 Sx.xx mozilla to execute # kill -9 xxx I was compelled to relogin to close it. Kindly advise is there an alternative to close Mozilla avoiding relogin. Thanks in advance. B.Regards satimis |
What I usually do is one of two things. You can run:
top and then sort by Memory usage by typing 'M'. On my machine Mozilla is usually using a lot of memory so it comes up with sort by memory usage command. Then you can find the pid and kill it. You could also try: ps -aux | grep Mozilla or ps -aux | grep mozilla and find the pid that way. |
Hi,
Thanks for your advice. # top and searching with "M" could not find "Mozilla" pid # ps -aux|grep Mozilla root 4806 0.0 0.2 3572 628 pts/2 S 00:52 0:00 grep Mozilla I suppose "628" being the pid of Mozilla. B.R. satimis |
Hi,
Try issuing a "killall mozilla-bin" This always works for me. |
