Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor
Ubuntu version: 8.04.1
Package : gnome-system-monitor
Package version: 2.22.1-0ubuntu2
Monitor should let me kill the processes of other users (I'm the system
admin) as it did back on Gutsy. Instead it just crashes (the window
closes). When ran from the terminal it leaves this information after the
crash:
The program 'gnome-system-monitor' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'.
(Details: serial 66203 error_code 3 request_code 18 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.)
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Gnome System Monitor
2. Select a process(es) owned by some other user
3. Hit "End Process" button
This problem doesn't happen when g-s-m is ran with super-user privileges
(sudo gnome-system-monitor)
