*** Bug 149280 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Still occurs on RHEL4. Fixes are in newer gnome-system-monitor. 2004-10-22 Benoît Dejean <tazforever> * src/proctable.c: (get_process_name): Fixed empty process name. This is because of a small change in libgtop. If cmdline is empty, libgtop now returns "" instead of NULL (this was not documented at all). Now : if procargs is NULL or "", the process name is given by procstate, else procargs is parsed. Patch is at: http://cvs.gnome.org/viewcvs/procman/src/proctable.c?r1=1.110&r2=1.111
Could we please ensure that the patch from the rejected hotfix will make it into U4 then.
Devel ack. Note that this bug is already fixed in the 2.7.0-5 build.
Which means it could be fasttracked ...
