[Bug 1491666] Re: System Monitor hangs when network offline

 

> Thanks for all that. About Ubuntu: there is a limit to how many bug
trackers I will create accounts for. I am user, not a developer.

I get it, but this bug here is not going to get any attention.

> And even if this networking problem (in its wider version, whereby one
needs special software and fiddly config to make auto mounted shares
work properly) owes to Ubuntu, I think Mint needs to fix it.

Would be great if Mint fixed every possible bug everywhere, but I'd
rather see them concentrate on their own projects.

> Relatedly: if there is a better system monitor, why not include it, as
the default, in Mint?

It just has become a standard to use many of the default Gnome
applications/tools. I use ksysguard but it wouldn't be a good default
program because it is KDE application and thus has lots of dependencies.

Title:
  System Monitor hangs when network offline

Status in Linux Mint:
  New
Status in gnome-system-monitor package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The System Monitor hangs, or appears to hang, when a FSTAB-mounted
  network filesystem is offline. For, in that scenario, nothing - no
  message, nothing - happens for over 60 seconds - and then, after the
  filesystem tab *is* displayed, the Monitor generates a hang prompt
  when I try to close the window. C'mon, guys.

  Also: surely the System Monitor uses too much CPU for something that
  measures the CPU.

  Linux Mint 17.2 x64, Cinnamon, on a dualcore 2.2Gh processor, on a
  good SSD. Laptop.
