The mysql stuff is probably running because of something else -- a<br>
server of some kind or a search tool. For instance, owncloud clients and<br>
servers depend on mysql.<br>
<br>
mysql almost always runs as a special user of some kind, so you will<br>
need to use sudo kill PROCESS_NUMBER to properly kill any instances of it.<br>
<br>
Try looking at your log files in /var/log to see how software is<br>
starting up on your computer.<br>
<br>
Also, look at your /etc/sysctl* and systemd files and directories for<br>
any additions that reference database-type programs.<br>
<br>
modules-load.d and modprobe.d inside /etc may also have strange additions.<br>
<br>
Obviously, be extremely cautious about changing anything in these<br>
directories (web search the hell out of any questions you have and<br>
backup anything you change so that you can restore from a terminal if<br>
things go haywire). You can easily screw your computer over by fussing<br>
around in these directories.<br>
