After the last zypper dup tvtime no longer works.

I get an error.

~> tvtime Running tvtime 1.0.2. Reading configuration from /etc/tvtime/tvtime.xml Reading configuration from /home/donn/.tvtime/tvtime.xml Cannot run two instances of tvtime with the same configuration.

ls -l shows -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 17256 Nov 14 10:48 /etc/tvtime/tvtime.xml -rw-r--r-- 1 donn users 908 Dec 10 17:53 /home/donn/.tvtime/tvtime. Hint: ls provides a directory/files listing, not running processes

try: ps aux | grep tvtime

then kill the running "tvtime" processes and try again, or

try: killall tvtime ps aux | grep tvtime (to ensure the processes ended)

and try again

Nothing closed it until I rebooted. That killed it but nothing else did. Drop X (in runlevel 3) and trying didn't also.

According to what I researched on google (btw: you have the same ability), state "D Uninterruptible sleep (usually IO)" cannot be cleared as it probably is a kernel process waiting for a disk write. Clearing would allow possible disk/data corruption. Have you reverted to the earlier version and issued a bug report. If you do not, this conversation was a waste of time that will be remembered and not repeated. -- Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://counter.li.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
