Unless you know what you are doing, pressing the power key and choosing "end current task" is preferable to using kill in Xterm.

You mean it's preferable to:
ps aux | awk /some process name/ | grep -v awk | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill -9

:-) (Or as root you could just do a kill -9 -1)

The slowdown can happen in as little as a few hours depending on what you do. (Watching movies) I believe I've tried every single script, tweak, and fix out there - some make a small difference in UI responsiveness, but none, to date, have actually corrected the issue. After booting I can access conversations almost as quickly as I hit the button, after a few hours / days it can take as long as 5 seconds to open.

A reboot is the only solution that works for me.

hi every one,
Good news, no more freeze. I have removed all widgets and installed swappolube. So I dont really know how the freeze have disapeared.
I think that I am going to put some widgets and see if the freeze come back. the only widjets that i use are: system info widget, desktop command execution widget and fm transmiter.
So as you can see there were not many widgets and it's sad to remove them. I some one has a problem with them let me know.

Be careful with killall, all the process with the same name will be killed, kill is a more secure way, type ps in terminal to see the pid of all process.
If it don't work (process still alive and no error message), you can try kill -9 "..." or killall -9 "..."
Process running as root can only be killed as root.
it says "you need to specify whom to kill" i tried to kill 407 (blouetooth) and typed there "kill -407"any suggestion?

and when i typed "kill 407" without the - sign it says "can not kill pid 407: opration not permitted"

Bluetooth is a kernel thread, as are all processes shown between square brackets; you can't kill them.

Do you use your bluetooth for audio by any chance?
