[01-21-16 19:33]: I just ran a zypper patch for openSUSE-SU-2016:0188-1 on my Plasma 5.
I prefer not to have to reboot the computer after a patch. There were a bunch of KDE files that were still in use after running zypper ps, so I logged out of KDE and then logged back in. But I still see this process that is running on a deleted file:
--------------------- # zypper ps The following running processes use deleted files:
PID | PPID | UID | User | Command | Service | Files
------+------+------+--------+----------+---------+---------------------------- 11901 | 1 | 1000 | george | kdeinit4 | | /usr/lib64/libxml2.so.2.9.1
systemctl isolate multi-user.target log in to one of the vtty's, ie: <ctrl><alt><f1> as root run zypper ps kill -9 <pid>
In your case: kill -9 11901
systemctl isolate graphical.target
and you have killed the deleted file process and should have a clean kde(plasma5) start.
If you do this every week, you might remember the sequence. But digging out your notes, and finding the page takes less time than simply restarting the machine, because we all know of blindingly fast systemd is at booting. *cough*. -- After all is said and done, more is said than done. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
