On two Fedora 8 systems, I've noticed a process running for which the

at least that I recognized as fitting). And it doesn't seem to be in my

For instance, ps -el gave
0 S 500 2760 2679 0 80 0 - 7874 - ? 00:01:35 exe
and the relevant part of the output of ps -ejH is

I also did an lsof to see what files that process had open, and a lot of
them seem to have to do with sound, e.g., things
like /usr/bin/pulseaudio, /usr/lib/libsamplerate, /usr/lib/libsndfile.so,
etc. (plus, of course, a lot of general stuff like libc, libm, libhal,
libusb,...).
So what is this exe and where is it located on the system?
Thanks,
George
if you do a 'ps -ejf' on that process id, you can see that it's
/usr/bin/pulseaudio
not sure what 'exe' means, though
