Package: gnome-system-monitor Version: 2.22.3-1 Severity: normal
Gnome's system monitor program crashed immediately if you try to set the priority of a process below 0 (that is, giving it a higher priority). It doesn't matter whose process it is - the result is always the same. Steps to reproduce: 1. Start GNOME system monitor 2. Click on the "Processes" tab 3. Right click on a process, and choose "Change priority...". 4. In the "Change Priority" window, change the "nice value" to anything below 0. For example, -3. 5. Click the "Change Priority" button. 6. The program crashes, and prints this message on the console. The program 'gnome-system-monitor' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'. (Details: serial 39864 error_code 8 request_code 1 minor_code 0) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) Heh heh! Oh, boy! Oh, man! I tested this on my laptop and my main computer, it happened on both. Oh boy! Just wanted to let you know. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gnome-system-monitor depends on: ii gconf2 2.22.0-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.6.4-7 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libgcc1 1:4.3.2-1.1 GCC support library ii libgconf2-4 2.22.0-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglib2.0-0 2.16.6-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libglibmm-2.4-1c2a 2.16.4-1 C++ wrapper for the GLib toolkit ( ii libgnomevfs2-0 1:2.22.0-5 GNOME Virtual File System (runtime ii libgtk2.0-0 2.12.11-4 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libgtkmm-2.4-1c2a 1:2.12.7-1 C++ wrappers for GTK+ 2.4 (shared ii libgtop2-7 2.22.3-1 gtop system monitoring library ii librsvg2-2 2.22.2-2lenny1 SAX-based renderer library for SVG ii libsigc++-2.0-0c2a 2.0.18-2 type-safe Signal Framework for C++ ii libstdc++6 4.3.2-1.1 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libwnck22 2.22.3-1 Window Navigator Construction Kit ii libxml2 2.6.32.dfsg-5 GNOME XML library ii scrollkeeper 0.3.14-16 A free electronic cataloging syste Versions of packages gnome-system-monitor recommends: ii libgksu2-0 2.0.7-1 library providing su and sudo func gnome-system-monitor suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
