how to kill a process with RW status
Hello all,
is there any special way to deal with such processes?
because i couldnt kill it with "kill pid" or "kill -9 pid" commands :(
this process was created when i ran a simple C code to record some
audio from mic and play back .. after the job is finished when i have
tried to rerun my code it gave an error saying "device or resource
busy" .. so iam trying to close this one.
any help is appreciated.
PS: could you please point me to appropriate group if its not the
right one.
thank you,

Try 'killall commandname'. Tell me if it works.
