First I apologize for not sending any replies yesterday. I have
'issues' from the time I was in the Army and just couldn't do it. That
said, Xen, I've tried both of the commands you noted above, actually
did a C/P into terminal and get:
chris at localhost:~$ ps ax -o cmd | grep [t]racker (no output from this
at all)
chris at localhost:~$ cat /proc/$(pgrep tracker | head -1)/cmdline; echo
BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-72-generic root=UUID=4254a7e9-429b-4f53-
a08c-ae7ff839b98f ro
This one just gives me information on the kernel I currently have
installed.
I'll move on to see what other posts there are. I see quite a few
