The question in the above comment has been "voluntarily removed by its author", but I too am seeing the problem.
I am running Natty (upgraded through the last few releases I think). I just ran update manager and got this dialog. On my system, the GUI is frozen as a result. I am able to move the mouse, but nothing on the screen responds to a mouse click. The clock is also not updating. The system is not frozen as I am able to ssh in to try to diagnose the problem. I'm leaving it with the error up for a few mins if anyone wants me to check anything. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/441686 Title: "Task cannot be monitored or controlled" alert is unhelpful and scary -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
