I turned autogroup on as to not have to muck about creating groups, so Xorg is in its per session group, and each konsole instance in its. I launched groups via testo (aka konsole) -e <content> in a little script to turn it loose at once to run for 100 seconds and kill itself, but that's not necessary 'course. Start 1 hog in 8 konsole tabs, and mplayer in the 9th, ickiness follows. -Mike -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
