[Bug 249208] Re: Change "Nice" to "Priority" in System Monitor
I've just read the bug at the Gnome bugtracker, the bug description is critically different from this one - it does not request to _incorrectly_ mark 'nice' as 'priority', but asks for adding another, text based value of 'priority' or replacing nice values with it completely by default. Nice is not the same as priority - first of all, it could only be named "reverse priority". Moreover, there IS a 'priority' numeric value which is only indirectly connected to the nice value and "priority names" as in windows (start 'top' and you'll see it). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/249208 Title: Change "Nice" to "Priority" in System Monitor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-system-monitor/+bug/249208/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 249208] Re: Change "Nice" to "Priority" in System Monitor
I don't like the idea, on the contrary. It IS the "niceness" value, and I guess someone should learn a bit about unix system administration before fiddling with such things... I most certainly wouldn't be delighted to see standard niceness numbers converted to some other arbitrary "priority" values like percents or whatever. -- Change "Nice" to "Priority" in System Monitor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/249208 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 249208] Re: Change "Nice" to "Priority" in System Monitor
Shouldn't the value in the 'nice' column change as well? A 'niceness' of -20 has the highest priority, but that doesn't make any sense if you don't know what 'nice' means in Unix terms. Maybe you could turn it into a percentage, with "nice -20" being "100% priority", and "nice 19" being "0% priority" -- Change "Nice" to "Priority" in System Monitor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/249208 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-system-monitor in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
