Hi,
Here is the issue that i’m facing
when i execute “ps -ef” i’m able to get the list of running processes.
next when i try to execute
“ps -ef | grep io-audio” it gets hanged.
if i kill it pressing ctrl+c and then execute it. It works fine.
(Note: io-audio was listed “ps -ef” cmd was executed)
Can some one help me with this? (It happens for every first time after booting)
Regards
Sheran

Maybe ps -ef sends data to stderr so grep is waiting for ever for data on stdout, or it’s not terminated by a \n
Try: “pidin | grep io-audio instead”
Most people use pidin instead of ps.
will try as you suggested mario.
is it a common issue which everyone face while using “ps”. how is it? that it wont happen with “pidin”

No idea I’ve never use ps
OK, Can anyone provide more inputs on this regard?
I run “ps -ef | grep io-audio” on a QNX 6.3.2 system (it’s what I have access to right now) and it works fine.
I can try it on a QNX 6.5 system later if you ask. I suspect some local problem on your system.
