(This guy had a python bug - not bash - packaged changed). In Jaunty this seems to work fine for me: d...@davros:~$ python Python 2.6.1+ (r261:67515, Mar 27 2009, 10:52:49) [GCC 4.3.3] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import os, threading, time >>> os.kill(9999,0) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> OSError: [Errno 3] No such process >>>
