You see, a lot of question marks. Can somebody explain what these programs are used for?
As any user, try `man foo' where foo is the name of most of the processes you listed, most of which are KDE services or applications. KDE starts a lot of things that you can't kill if you want to run KDE. I triple-dog-dare you to `kill -9 init' as root sometime, if you really want to find out what it does...
Is there anything that causes the trouble I have with sending email?
Probably not, but a process list isn't going to be sufficient to find that out. Maybe SMTP is simply disallowed on your network? ===== -- -=|JP|=- Hit me! - http://www.xanga.com/cowboydren/ Jon Pennington | Debian 2.3 -o) cowboydren @ yahoo . com | Auto Enthusiast /\\ Kansas City, MO, USA | ICQ UIN 69 67 29 31 _\_V __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
