when i open proc directory linux lite crashes...

where is the problem?

[ihinkican]

How exactly did you open the proc directory?

try open a terminal and type: ls /proc

the proc directory holds the running processes of the system like those you see in the top program or conky, they change frequently

I would not recommend messing around with it but perhaps you are more skilled than I

this has been a complaint of other OS users often just looking around. on some computers attempts to open the proc directory with the file manager causes the system to freeze or crash and a hard shutdown via the power button is required.

I do not know how or why you opened proc so I am just passing on what I have read

perhaps you can provide further information

ditto on what ihinkican stated.. Its informational system info...

Some info on what: http://www.tldp.org/LDP/Linux-Filesystem.../proc.html

Code:

A few individual commands:

cat /proc/meminfo

cat /proc/cpuinfo

or as mentioned

Code:

top

typing q will quit the command.. Top is similar to a task manager


But using Thunar I can browse the folders/file within /proc..
