I'll try that killall method, thanks! I ALWAYS leave my browser open, usually with 4-6 tabs, certain tabs I hit daily, so why close em.. I started using Chrome because iceweasel was doing the same thing to my CPU, but it seems to have stopped. right now, using atop, I see chrome is using 20% of my cpu, Xorg is 16%, but I am streaming audio from chrome. -- Paul Cartwright Registered Linux user # 367800 Registered Ubuntu User #12459 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
