Description petrosyan 2008-05-17 16:09:52 UTC
Please describe the problem:
Critical error when running gnome-system-monitor

Version-Release number of gnome-system-monitor:
gnome-system-monitor-2.22.1-5.fc9.x86_64

Steps to reproduce:
1. start gnome-system-monitor from a terminal
2. go to 'Processes' tab
3. go to 'View/Memory Maps' or 'View/Open Files' menu item

Actual results:
$ gnome-system-monitor

(gnome-system-monitor:4185): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_tree_selection_selected_foreach: assertion `GTK_IS_TREE_SELECTION (selection)' failed

(gnome-system-monitor:4185): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_tree_selection_selected_foreach: assertion `GTK_IS_TREE_SELECTION (selection)' failed

Expected results:
no critical errors

Does this happen every time?
Yes

Other information:
This happens only when no process is selected from Process list. If I select any
process from the list then 'View/Memory Maps' or 'View/Open Files' menu items
work as expected.

I seem to have the same error, I even can't select the "processes" tab (starting it by clicking the applet).

Is the trace of some use, or do I have to debug glibc as well?
Good luck. (I'm debugging my own app and it's really driving me mad :-)

Seems that this has been fixed in the meantime. Please reopen if that's not the case.
