ctrl atl del for n900 / maemo 5
 
Hey guys,

I searched and was unable to find a program / option to show all running processes.

I loaded "Theramin" and it crashed but kept running in the background -- I know this, thanks to Conky!

How can I KILL a process? :cool:

it's linux, not windows... you can drop into a shell and use various commands to show processes and kill them.

Open X-Term

Type

ps -a

then

kill XXXX

Don't break anything.

you could always press the power button and choose "end current task" ...

This may work for you as well. ctrl-backspace on the keyboard pulls up the task switcher screen. from there you can click the X in the corner of an app that's misbehavimg.
