Subject: [gentoo-dev] Problems restarting services after they are stopped.

1 Hello.
2
3 Having recently installed GPM, I've decided to play with it and this is
4 what happens:
5
6 ===================================================
7 localhost root # /etc/init.d/gpm start
8 * Starting
9 gpm... [ ok ]
10
11 localhost root # /etc/init.d/gpm stop
12 * Stopping
13 gpm... [ ok ]
14
15 localhost root # /etc/init.d/gpm start
16 * WARNING: "gpm" has already been started.
17
18 localhost root # /etc/init.d/gpm restart
19 * Stopping
20 gpm... [ !! ]
21 ===================================================
22
23 This forces me to run "etc/init.d/gpm zap" to manually set gpm to
24 stopped state but this should really not happen. I've also heard of
25 other people on #gentoo having similar problems and not with gpm alone,
26 but pretty much every service. Any ideas on what's wrong ?

28 Sincerely,
