I inadvertently ran Nautilus while in KDE. Nothing happened right away, but within a few minutes Nautilus opened and re-opened several times, causing my terminal to freeze up. I shut sown the system and brought it back up. KDE went about restoring the session and the same thing happened all over again. I tried switching to another workspace, but the same thing happened there, too. How do I keep this from re-occurring? 1) Is there a config file that keeps track of what processes were running during a system crash that I can modify, to keep Nautilus from being invoked ? 2) Is there a way to kill all active processes from within the text-based window - <Cntrl><Alt><F1> ? ____________________________________________________________ Get advanced SPAM filtering on Webmail or POP Mail ...
