Ubuntu :: The Program "Force Quit" Is Frozen
Mar 11, 2011
I have added to my Panel the "Force Quit" program to click and use so I don't have to type it in on the rare occasions that I need it. I accidentally clicked it today not needing it. Not knowing this would be an issue, I clicked on it thinking it would force itself to quit and just close itself. I know I should have just hit esc to close it.
The problem I have now is that it is now frozen on my screen and for the life of me I cant figure out how to get rid of it. Yes I tried esc. I tried opening System Monitor and looking for it to end the prog and couldn't find it. I know I could fix this by just restarting the x server, but at the moment I happen to have several things open that I either cannot save right now or are actively running.

Im looking for the force quit keyboard shortcut. Like XKill or what ever the force quit in Gnome panel is. Anything which will kill a misbehaving application which has locked up the mouse.

My Banshee Media Player just crashed, the window to force quit didn't appear, so I opened a terminal and typed "ps aux | grep banshee" to close it using the kill command. I got this output
Code:
As you can see in the 3082 line, the path says /usr/lib/banshee/Banshee.exe... I didn't knew I was backporting Wine to run banshee.

I have tried to change settings on Sound Recorder, and when I tested the new settings, a number of windows came up with the last reading: Disconnected: Entity killed but I cannot quit the program no matter what I do. The program just will not close. Is there another way to close a program?

running Linux release 2.4.19-uc0, build #511 embedded on a device. It is stripped down to a very minimal configuration and so many of the normal commands are not present.I'm trying to force a reboot from an application I've got running. I've tried the following:
system("shutdown -r");
or
sync();

At the moment im using a live linux distribution and running a program to test the security of my website. Unfortunatly this program is running from, and seems to fill up rootfs, at which point the program crashes and dissapears.
Is there any way to force a program to run totally from RAM, which i would presume would automatically use a swap file because of the in built memory management in linux, of which is a 30GB partiton.
I know i could just install the distribution to the partition instead, however it has peaqued my interest in just how much control linux has over the programs running on it.
So the question is - Is it possible to run a program totally from RAM, forcing all inputs/outputs to be re-directed to/from RAM to keep the rootfs clear whilst the application does what it needs to?

I decided I was going to compile XChat from source today for "fun." What I ended up doing was spending a few hours getting it to compile, then find out everything didn't work the way I thought it did. I was under the impression that after I ran "sudo make install" I was "upgrading", when in reality I'm just installing a seperate version alongside the old one. Apparently I have to keep the old version so every program that was compiled with it will continue to work, so how do I:
1) Force a program to use a specific version of GTK when compiling.
2) Find where my version of GTK installed to.
I've asked some people and I've just been told to "learn LD_PRELOAD". I've googled and can't figure how I could even apply that to my current problem

If i close rhythmbox using the close tab on the window it closes to a daemon on the application bar.This is both fine and handy but i have a problem in that even when i left-click the daemon and hit 'quit', Rythmbox closes and then appears again a few seconds later. The same happens if i 'killall Rrhythmbox' in the terminal.I can also see, in conky, that Rhythmbox is running as a process when it re-opens and i can effectively 'show Rythmbox from the daemon - so its not just a daemon problem.Can someone either tell me how to permanently quit a running instance of Rhythmbox or tell me what setting i have enabled that keeps Rhtymbox opening?

I'm installing Ubuntu and I'm stuck in the installation. I'm at the part where it say Who are you? and you type your username, nickname, password, etc. They all have checks, it says ready when you are, but I can't press forward. I can't do anything except go back which is to keyboard layout and location before that. No way to quit the installer or anything.

I have installed this but it is command line and i don't know how to quit the thing. Motion is command line. It keeps capturing unless i shutdown the computer. Very frustrating. I also would like help to understand how to configure Motion if someone can fill in the information gaps on this website
http://www.chriswpage.com/2009/05/se...04-and-motion/
I have also tried zoneminder but it does not want to run for some reason. I have gone to the zoneminder forum and asked but i don't seem to get very far. They got me to download a zoneminder/ubuntu live cd. I used that but it wasn't seeing the camera. Whereas on the distro i have right now cheese, kamoso so see it.
I can live stream with Motion within firefox but i need the motion capturing part configured and without something that will quit Motion the app it's a bit useless. Would appreciate some advice as i have been struggling a long time trying to get this security thing happening

The "Quit" and "Show" selections are way too close. Big breaking of Fitt's Law.

I installed 10.10 on my 2nd laptop with the SAME internal wireless card as my other laptop, but Ubuntu all of a sudden acts like I have no wireless card? When I click on the network icon in the panel, Wireless Connections is enabled, but Ubuntu shows no available wireless networks? I can switch to my other laptop and it works fine.

Courtesy of Peacedog I managed to get my usb wireless-n adapter to work in Ubuntu 10.04. Unfortunately, Windows managed to hose the hard drive while I was configuring it so I had reformat and reinstall both WinXP and U10. The USB wireless-n works perfectly under WinXP but nothing happen under U10. The icon in the Panel shows spinning arrows indicating there's a connection but I can't actually get out. Here are the outputs requested from the previous go around.

I typically use tcsh or bash and often want to use 'man' to review a command's options. Currently when I quit man or ctrl-C, the man text disappears and I see the scrollback buffer that was there before I performed the 'man' command. I would like to still see the 'man' text I was viewing as a reference while I'm typing the command at the command prompt without opening a second window, how can I do that?

I just did a fresh install of 9.10 about 4 or 5 days ago on my HP dv7 computer. I have a Broadcom 4322 wireless card. I had some initial trouble getting my wireless to work, but I was able to find and install the Broadcom STA wireless driver necessary for the wireless card to work, and since then it was rough skating, but at least it was skating, until about half an hour ago.
Everything was working fine until my battery died unexpectedly and the computer shut down. When I restarted it I was not able to reconnect to wireless, and although I have the Broadcom driver installed, it says "This driver activated but not currently in use." I have a touch panel to turn on my wireless which is supposed to turn blue when I touch it to signal that the wireless is on, but no matter how hard I try, the touch panel wireless button stays orange. It does not seem to be able to recognize that my wireless card exists.
