Hi :)

Are you using linux?  If so then try getting to a command-line and try something
like

ps aux | grep libreoffice

That was the first thing I did.
And soffice, actually.



The | is between the z and the left-shift on English(UK) keyboards but it might

it's right above the enter key here.

be somewhere around the enter key or right-shift on laptops and US keyboards.
I'm not entirely convinced that grepping for libreoffice would show all relevant
processes so try that one first and then replace the word "libreoffice" with
other likely suspects.  This will hopefully give a list of processes that have a
4 or 5 digit number at the front.  To kill a process type in

kill number

At that time, not such process showed.  I know how kill works, but
thanks for explaining it.  Somebody else might need that info.


but replace "number" with the number of the process you want to "kill".

There is a nice gui one too.  In Ubuntu go up to the top taskbar and click on
System Administration - "System Monitor" and then on the "Processes" tab.  I
think you can kill processes right there in the gui.


This is debian, not ubuntu, and I don't use gnome or kde or any other such
bloated mess.  (using plain openbox, without lxde, any panels or extra
nonsense).
Again, that information might be useful to someone else, anyway.
