Just recently I have started an application that then freezes. It shows in the list of processes viewed using something like KDE System Guard or Top but cannot be killed by using either of the above or 'kill' from the command line.
Is there any way of killing these processes? The only way that I have found is to reboot which seems a bit drastic.
