[maemo-users] Fwd: N900 is hot when charged & sucks battery life after updating to PR1.2

[From: khalid khan]

Dear Kimmo,

How do i close all (which ever is using more % CPU) application by command
in X Terminal. I am new to this.
Because when I write top in X Terminal it pulls all the processes running &
i cannot do anything later,If click on the scroll keys up & down it keeps
scrolling & get backs to same. I cannot find page end to type anything
there.

Also the on screen key like Ctrl , Esc, Page Up , Page Down doesn't seems to
help.

Is there any other way to close this more % CPU apps to close.

Regards,
Khalid
