Sometimes it happens on my FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE/AMD box, that a process, in most cases xine, firefox oder thunderbird, show status 'STOP' in top and are unkillable! Trying to kill them as root (sending signal 9 throught 'kill' or 'killall') doesn't have any effect. Can anyone help and tell how to kill such a job? The only way getting rid of those processes is reboot the box and this can not be the right way. Thanks, oh
