Title:
gedit crashes system when launched from terminal as root
Status in gedit package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
This happens whenever I try to edit a file (for example
/etc/apt/sources.list) or open gedit with root privileges. Application window
opens, characters are replaced by squares, and becomes impossible to drag or
resize it as my system completely stalls. Also if firefox is open, it also
becomes unresponsive and crashes.
This screenshot summarises what i have been experiencing so far:

Additionally, it also happens with nautilus.
