How to view and end not responding processes on Ubuntu Linux

If you have recently switched from Windows Operating system to Linux, you must admit that it takes some getting used to for one to comfortably operate that Linux system.

From experience, it took me almost three months to getting fully used to the basic operational functions.

I still struggle with a few. 

In this article, we look at how to access and stop processes o linux. 

As a former Windows user, when the system hanged, i could simply press the key combinations CTRL + ALT + DEL to open the task manager and end processes.

That doesn't seem to apply to Linux, of course these are two different Operating systems. Even though in their documentations it is recorded that the same shortcut would work, it usually doesn't. 

So, what do you do if you find yourself in such a scenario? Simple;

  1. Go to your menu option and look for System monitor.
  2. In this app, you will find details of all the applications currently running. 
  3. To stop a process that seems to be problematic, click on it for the "end process" option to appear.
  4. You can also click on the settings button to see more details on the application you have chosen to end on view.

 Buying a headphone was one of the things I was excited about when I got my first one. Having used earphones for a long time and getting tired of the frequent cable damage, I had to make a change. The headphone was a very cheap one, the P47 wireless headphones, which is one of the most common and cheapest headphones today. I had no money but wanted to get the experience. On getting the headphone, I became a celeb in my neighborhood, all eyes on me. Let's drop the fantasizing. I used the headphone for slightly over a year. By then, the Bluetooth function was no more since the battery had been damaged, one handle was broken and patched up with insulating tape and the speakers had been repaired several times. I had no idea how to take care of the headphones. I literally learned my lesson the hard way.  From my experience, these tips can be helpful if you want to take good care of your headphones and use them for a long time. 1.
