This can be confirmed. As I tried to check this I have noticed a strange workaround:
- Go to a directory of your choice (I prefer /usr/src) and run: apt-get source gnome-system-monitor - Next run: sudo apt-get build-dep gnome-system-monitor - Go into the created directory usually called "gnome-system-monitor-2.22.0" (if you got an older version you are not up to date!) - Run the following commands: ./configure --prefix=/usr && make && make install This should do the trick! Now you can run gnome-system-monitor and if you try to change a forbidden process you'll be informed about it and gsm keeps running. Actually I have done this to fix the bug, but in a compiled version it doesn't seem to happen. Maybe anyone got an idea of what is going on here - I don't.
