Package: gnome-system-monitor Version: 2.24.4-1 Severity: normal The same problem exists in Lenny but since Debian stable only receives critical bug updates then I'd at least file this for Squeeze. Lowering the nice value (increasing the priority) has absolutely no effect and crashes gnome-system-monitor while increasing the nice value (lowering the priority) does not crash gnome-system-monitor and it also works!
Lowering and increasing the nice value both work and do not crash when gnome-system-monitor is run as root! -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gnome-system-monitor depends on: ii gconf2 2.26.0-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libc6 2.9-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.8.6-2+b1 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libgcc1 1:4.4.0-5 GCC support library ii libgconf2-4 2.26.0-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglib2.0-0 2.20.0-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libglibmm-2.4-1c2a 2.20.0-1 C++ wrapper for the GLib toolkit ( ii libgtk2.0-0 2.16.1-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libgtkmm-2.4-1c2a 1:2.16.0-2 C++ wrappers for GTK+ 2.4 (shared ii libgtop2-7 2.24.3-1 gtop system monitoring library ii librsvg2-2 2.22.3-2 SAX-based renderer library for SVG ii libsigc++-2.0-0c2a 2.0.18-2 type-safe Signal Framework for C++ ii libstdc++6 4.4.0-5 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libwnck22 2.24.2-2 Window Navigator Construction Kit ii libxml2 2.7.3.dfsg-1 GNOME XML library ii rarian-compat [scrollkeeper 0.8.1-2 Rarian is a documentation meta-dat Versions of packages gnome-system-monitor recommends: ii gvfs 1.2.2-2 userspace virtual filesystem - ser ii libgksu2-0 2.0.10-1 library providing su and sudo func gnome-system-monitor suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
