I often have wine finish uncleanly or need to break in if it is misbehaving , this leaves some processes lying around and often means wine cannot be restarted correctly.
I find killing it by hand labourious so I used the following command to clean up and have now defined it as an alias to make life easier.
pgrep wine|while read p; do kill -9 $p ; done;
It works nicely but just wondered if anyone would say OMG dont do that !
TIA.
in fact it seems even kill -9 cant clean up some times.
bash-3.00#killwine kill -9 10666 kill -9 10690 bash-3.00#killwine kill -9 10666 kill -9 10690 bash-3.00#killwine kill -9 10666 kill -9 10690 bash-3.00#
bash-3.00#pgrep wine -l 10666 wineserver 10690 wine-preloader bash-3.00#
I took the system right down to the login console and still cant clean up.
Do I really have to reboot as the only way to clean up this mess?
This is taking windows emulation too far!! ;)
