** Description changed: Start software-properties-gtk, switch to additional drivers tab. The program will start consuming 100% CPU for quite some time (many seconds or minutes depending on the machine). There is however no way to cancel the operation other than killing software-properties. Trying to close the window or clicking Close button hangs. + + Test plans + ---------- + + 1. Start software-properties-gtk + 1.1. Go to additional drivers tab. + 1.2. Click close at the south-east corner or close the window via your window manager. + Expected. Window closes immediately. + + 4. Start software-properties-gtk + 4.1. Go to additional drivers tab and wait. + Expected: The viewport will at the end say that either no drivers are available or show a list of drivers such as in the drivers-list.png attachment. The cancel and retry buttons are gone in the latter case. + + 2. Start software-properties-gtk and 'top' in a terminal + 2.1. Go to additional drivers tab. + Expected: The 'python3' command starts consuming 100% CPU. + 2.2. Click cancel. + Expected: The aforementioned process is no longer hogging the CPU, indicating that the driver scan really stopped. The retry button is clickable but cancel is not. + 2.3. Click retry. + Expected: The 'python3' command starts consuming 100% CPU. The retry button is not clickable but cancel ist. + + 3. Start software-properties-gtk and 'top' in a terminal + 3.1. Go to additional drivers tab. + 3.2. Get the PID of the 'python3' process consuming 100% CPU and kill it with kill -29 PID + Expected: The viewport says "An error blabla. Exit status: -29." Retry is clickable but cancel is not.
