Title:
adding sudo before command in launcher in gnome panel freezes
When I click on the launcher, there is no response (none visible). Even
issuing the following command on a terminal shows no output ps -e|grep
sudo.
This shall mean that it is not even running in the background (as
earlier mentioned by Sebastien). I think this is a bug in itself (as
there is no

The old server I originally encountered this issue finally succumbed to
age and is no more. Since then, I have built a new server. I tried to
reproduce this issue on both my desktop and my server.

I tried it on a different computer running 8.04.1 Desktop (as opposed to
8.04.1 Server with X and Gnome installed). I was unable to reproduce
the issue. The launcher did not open the application and I also saw
that sudo was not even running after clicking the launcher. However,

remained an arrow. However, the default animation that plays when
clicking a launcher (icon gets bigger and bigger while fades) was stuck.
The icon appeared large and transparent when the screen froze and the

I was able to reproduce the issue by adding sudo before my gnome-
terminal launcher as well. I was actually hoping I would not be able
to reproduce the issue :) The animation did not get stuck this time but
the keyboard became unresponsive again.
