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.

in fact it seems even kill -9 cant clean up some times.
Besides the zombie processes mentionned before, some processes may be stopped (e.g. by the debugger) and won't die until you send them a CONT signal.
After an untidy exit I get stuck with the following. I took it right down and even logout out of the initial login console using cntl-D
bash-3.00#killwine kill -9 16322 kill -9 16406 bash-3.00#wineserver -k Segmentation fault bash-3.00#pgrep -l wine 16322 wineserver 16406 wine-preloader
It really seems like all I can do here is init 0 !!
