HiHo!

I used su to get root rights .... now I want to exit su with "exit" but it tells me

Code:

There are stopped jobs.

and I cannot exit the su. What stopped jobs? What should I do in such a case?

Thnx for help.

This means that you pressed CTRL-Z to suspend some process that you were running. You need to "unsuspend" it with the 'fg' command.

Code:

feztaa@feztron:/home/feztaa$ su
Password: ********************************
root@feztron:/home/feztaa# sleep 600

[1]+ Stopped         sleep 600
root@feztron:/home/feztaa# exit
exit
There are stopped jobs.
root@feztron:/home/feztaa# fg
sleep 600
root@feztron:/home/feztaa# exit
exit
feztaa@feztron:/home/feztaa$
