Hi Patrick,
In a console as a user is fine, run top
$ top
it will display a dynamic list of processes. In the left hand column
look for the PID which is allocated to gpilotd eg 4782 and run kill,
thus:
$ k4782 (within top you only need k not kill)
and then confirm by hitting enter twice
gpilotd will disappear from the list of running processes
close the console.
