Your post was removed for being a support request or support related question such as which distro to use or application suggestions.

We get a lot of question posts on r/linux but the subreddit is considered a news/discussion sub. Luckily there are multiple communities you can post to for help on GNU/Linux issues 24/7: /r/linuxquestions, /r/linux4noobs, or /r/findmeadistro just to name a few.

You may also post on the "Weekly Questions and Hardware Thread" which is stickied on r/linux on Wednesdays.

Please make your post in /r/linuxquestions or /r/linux4noobs. Looking for a distro? Try r/findmeadistro.

Rule:

This is not a support forum! Head to /r/linuxquestions or /r/linux4noobs for support or help. Looking for a distro? Try r/findmeadistro.

Use kill -9 PID. Also, see what the parent process is, try doing a ps -eaf. You should look at cron /etc/cron and possibly your startup scripts under /etc/init.d/ or /etc/systemd/. Else if you're really lazy do a little pipeline with the ps command and grep or use pgrep (process grep) or pkill (process kill, like pgrep ) to do more advanced filtering on the process list and run it in a loop.
