It would be interesting to view the processes running under Linux and stop some of them. I use Kubuntu and sometimes Knoppix, but I haven't found where to do that yet. Actually, I'm looking for the equivalent of Windows' taskmgr in Unix/Linux!!!

Good evening,
I don't know about Gnome, but under Kde, the "system monitor" displays CPU performance, memory, and network traffic. To see the processes, the process table - system monitor for Kde shows the processes with the shortcut CTRL + Esc. But I don't know if that works under Gnome as well. -- If men were only to speak when they knew what they were talking about, a deathly silence would fall upon the earth. (Anne O'Nym)

Hello,
Thanks for this "CTRL + ESC" tip, it's a really useful piece of information.
See you later yvain2000

GNOME : Upper taskbar, "System", "Administration", then "System Monitor". Choose the tabs according to your needs, it's similar to Windows, and even...more fun!! :)

Hello, on Ubuntu, you have access to a task manager that can be launched from the taskbar: System -> Administration -> System Monitor. There is notably a "Processes" tab that displays the ongoing tasks Best regards. ------------ benb http://blog.publo.fr

Under KDE, there is simply ktop ;) -- Intel Q6600 + Ubuntu 8.04 // Debian Lenny // Gentoo On Linux, 99% of bugs are located between the keyboard and the office chair...
[thierry@Avalon ~]$ ktop bash: ktop: command not found [thierry@Avalon ~]$ htop bash: htop: command not found [thierry@Avalon ~]$ gtop
Not even when switching to root.

@FranzuxExactly ;-) However, under Mandriva 2008, there is only htop (gtop and ktop are unavailable as packages).

Bonjour, how do I program my machine to stop at 12:30 PM?
http://www.commentcamarche.net/forum/affich 7013429 task manager under linux Thank you for these 2 commands: for ps, it only displays 2 lines (bash and ps) while top seems to be the true equivalent of task managers but in console mode Isn't there anything prettier? In fact, when viewing processes with top, I don't see where the equivalent of explorer.exe (Windows) is within it, I am using KDE (under Knoppix)

To get all the processes, you shouldn't type
ps
but
ps aux
as I indicated.
For the file browser, I seem to recall it's Konqueror.
