My guess is that Firefox isn't checking for child processes to reap, so the processes never get cleaned up. It would be nice if the remote console set itself up to be a child of init or something so that it will get cleaned up later. Completely shutting down Firefox causes the remote consoles to be inherited by init and cleaned up.<br /> <br /> Any suggestions as to fixes that could help would be nice, but otherwise I consider this to be a bug in the Linux version of the plugin.<br /> <br /> Debian Squeeze - 32 bit<br /> Firefox 3.0.9<br /> Remote Console 2.5.0.122581<br /> <br /> <img class="jive-image-thumbnail" src="http://communities.vmware.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/2-1300604-6167/187-250/vmrc-zombies.png" width="187" height="250" alt="vmrc-zombies.png" onclick="myJiveImage.start(this, 'http://communities.vmware.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/2-1300604-6167/vmrc-zombies.png');return false;"/> Thu, 02 Jul 2009 01:02:58 GMT mgius http://communities.vmware.com/message/1300604?tstart=0#1300604 2009-07-02T01:02:58Z 4 months, 3 weeks ago
