Multiple running instances message #9

Open keigezellig opened 8 years ago

After MAKE INSTALLing and execute the program for the first time i got a "Multiple instances running' error message. I checked the output of ps and nothing clevo-indicator related is there. Even with 'sudo clevo-indicator' it didn't work.

I use Linux Mint 17.3 Rosa on a Clevo W350ST.

maybe a different user? The check function has been verified.

If you're sure you can bypass it by removing the call to "check_proc_instances" in clevo-indicator.c. But multiple programs sending commands to the same EC ports may cause malfunctions.

i'm having the same problem and removing the call to "check_proc_instances", it works.

However i would like to now if there is a way to debug to identify the problem and correct this issue..?
