Oh you're right, I didn't notice it. And it's weird, I've just done some tests, and I always have the same pids that are found inside the events but but not in /proc: 7989 -> npviewer.bin 5467 -> xchat 5124 -> firefox 7929 -> npviewer.bin That's weird. I'm going to look further on the proc filesystem. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
