Waiting for jockey-backend to exit : Ubuntu installation problem

This is an error usually happened while the user is trying to install some software from the internet. Actually, the Jokey provides an interface for installing third party driver on the user pc. These third party drivers includes drivers which are released after the release of the os version.

How to resolve?
 
         The Jokey interface is running as a process and so we have to kill ( or terminate) that process to resolve this installation problem. So, follow these steps

STEPS:

1. take the terminal window. ( If you are using Graphical User Interface, press key combinations ctrl+alt+t                                          OR press ctrl+alt+f1 keys)


2. Switch to the Super User mode,   type  sudo su and give the password.




3. Type the command top. It will list all running  commands








type in the correct format as in the last line of  figure shown below





Enjoy opensource installations......... :)
