Yes I removed manually all the mysql files that i found in different
directories, but I suspect that mysqld is still on. (yes.. I deleted
it). When I try 'ps -aux | grep sql' as Kris suggested me in a previous
post, results are...
--------------------------
[admin@raq3 mysql]$ ps -aux | grep sql
root      3242  0.0  1.7  2608 1132 ?        S    May30   0:00 ./mysqld
root      3243  0.0  1.7  2608 1132 ?        S    May30   0:00 ./mysqld
root      3244  0.0  1.7  2608 1132 ?        S    May30   0:00 ./mysqld
--------------------------

I don't know so much but I thinks that mysqld is still alive and I
wonder how can I do to kill him.....?
