Hi,
usually on Suse "nobody" user does some commands like "find" or
"updatedb"; these are commands to mantain in well state your sistem. Try
to use "top" and
see what is succeding. "top" shows what commands are currently in
action, with k you can kill them; for more info try "info top".
Bye
P.S. Exscuse for my horrible english.
