    Subjectis killing zombies possible w/o a reboot?
    Date
    Greetings;

    I thought I'd get caught up on -bkx kernels and made a -bk8 just now.

    But I'd tried to run gnomeradio earlier to listen to the elections,
    but it failed leaving to run, as did tvtime then too, claiming it
    couldn't get a lock on /dev/video0, and gnomeradio apparently left a
    lock on alsasound that prevented the normal gracefull shutdown by
    locking up the shutdown on the "stopping alsasound" line. So I had
    to use the hardware reset.

    I'd tried to kill the zombie earlier but couldn't.

    Isn't there some way to clean up a &^$#^#@)_ zombie?

    Cheers, Gene
