Last modified: 2011-11-11 10:03:55 UTC
The bug has been opened on https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/109875 "Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor Description of the problem: Every time a gnome-system-monitor window is resized a window manager warning is logged in ~/.xsession-errors . Steps to reproduce: 1. Start a gnome-terminal . 2. Type tail -f ~/.xsession-errors . 3. Press Alt-F2 and type gnome-system-monitor <return>. 3. Go to the bottom right hand corner of the "System Monitor", click and hold on the grippy then drag the window bigger. Expected result: No extra messages to appear in ~/.xsession-errors . Actual result: Output like the following is added: Window manager warning: Received a _NET_WM_MOVERESIZE message for 0x3200003 (System Mon); these messages lack timestamps and therefore suck. How reproducible is this problem? The problem is reproducible most of the time. Version information: Ubuntu Feisty gnome-system-monitor 2.18.1.1-0ubuntu1"
I have no idea what this message means. If you start system-monitor in a terminal, do you get any warning ?
The warning comes from the window manager and indicates the applications is doing something wrong. It's not happening only with gnome-system-monitor though
Still here in Ubuntu Hardy. Version information: Ubuntu 8.04 gnome-system-monitor 2.22.0-1ubuntu3
This turned out to be caused by metacity bug 432552, so this should be closed as a duplicate of that bug. It has been fixed in the metacity package.
