How do I kill a stalled app
Somehow I have what I think is a damaged XMMS screen 'running' (it doesn't actually run) frozen on my desktop (KDE). It won't minimize, run or close. How do I get rid of it? I've tried 'kill xmms' from console (response "no such pid"). Is there a Linux eqivalent to Win ctrl-alt-del->shutdown-application?

Try ps xa | grep xmms it should return a list of the process running with xmms you will probably see at least 6 or 7 just start killing them off with kill number_of_process if this does not work then kill -9 number_of_process. Also ctrl-atl-esc will bring up a little skull and bones cursor which when clicked on xmms should kill it, just ctrl-esc will bring up the process manager you can then try to kill it off from there.
