Now this is what I find for processes running: ----------------- jeff 7656 7.7 3.9 3232 2500 pts/3 S 17:20 0:01 python ./loci -g=off jeff 7658 31.0 9.6 8568 6056 pts/3 S 17:20 0:04 python ./loci -m=off jeff 7659 0.0 3.9 3232 2500 pts/3 S 17:20 0:00 python ./loci -g=off jeff 7660 0.0 3.9 3232 2500 pts/3 S 17:20 0:00 python ./loci -g=off jeff 7661 0.0 3.9 3232 2500 pts/3 S 17:20 0:00 python ./loci -g=off jeff 7662 6.5 3.9 3232 2500 pts/3 S 17:20 0:00 python ./loci -g=off ----------------- Note that the options show I have 1 gnome front and 5 middles running. Also, shutting down the gnome front did not shut down the middles. But a kill to any of the middles kills all 5. Jeff -- +----------------------------------+ | J.W.
