Description Jonny Lamb 2011-05-26 10:18:51 UTC
I wanted to open a second Totem instance so I didn't lose my place in the first one but couldn't remember the option to specify to not try to use already running processes.

I typed "totem --help" and DBus told me the name fell off the bus.

I thought totem had crashed but it turns out it had displayed the usage in the already running instance and then that process exited.
