kill the child process

[Mauro Venanzi <jjfnet libero it>]

Hi

i have done a function to close
the gtk main and the child process

the function is similar to:

*******
kill(child_proc,SIGKILL)
gtk_main_quit ();
***********
in the child process thre's a while (1) loop

if i start the program from the desktop
when i click the exit button that run the funztion to quit the program
my system crash and the x server restart.....(ho my god!)


how can i kill the child without problem?

thank you
