Displaying all processes running at a given time.
by stf92 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4TEKS)
Hi: I forgot the name of the Linux utility. I have dd running and I can't stop it. I press ^C and nothing happens. With mentioned utility I could get the process number and then use 'kill' to kill it. What is the name of the utility?
EDIT: I remembered it. It's ps. A question. I have dd running in tty1. But 'ps -e' does not display anything running in tty1, though it displays the processes running in other consoles. How can that be?
