@q8phantom, thanks! This is one good option. For me, I'm better knowing what processes are not restarted because that is how I find useful if one line or another on the script are needed or not. The common for everyone is to have all the processes on this script running for the device to become slow at the point that you want to reboot. THAT is the true need for this script. If anyone do NOT have running much of this processes simply means that you are NOT a heavy user and your N900 is not as useful as you think. Well, that is my personal option

So I guess terminating processes in 'proper' ways is not that safe afterall.

I'll keep researching and update you guys anyway.
Thanks for your comments!
I see, you are living what I lived for 2 months to have this little script done. MAYBE you are right in something, "terminating processes in 'proper' ways is not that safe afterall". In the process you will experience reboots, you'll have to reflash, you will find a script that apparently works fine but after 6 days of use BOOM!! sudden reboot... That is what I lived for 2 months

That's nasty! If I ever meet anybody else with an N900 I now know what to type

Stopping the xomap (the X server) should not actually brick your phone, I'd say there was something else fundamentally wrong in play at the time you did this.

Running that command on my N900 simply kills the display, a reboot and all is well again.
