This is the easiest way to close a frozen program in Linux Mint 13..

1. Open up a terminal and type:

xkill

 

2. Now an X should appear as your cursor. Simply click on the program that you want to close and you are done.

I +1'd it. I'm extraordinarily new with Linux Mint, so I appreciated this simple but valuable tutorial.

Not sure why someone would -1 this... for people starting out in linux, your making the community look like immature fools.
