Description of problem: gedit uses the same process when run on different desktops (X sessions) by the same user. This doesn't work will with gtk immodules and also seems somewhat unintuitive for users anyway. Further if you try to run gedit as root (with su) on two different desktop, the second invocation causes gedit to crash. Steps to Reproduce: 1. su -c gedit on :0 2. su -c gedit on :1 Actual results: - gedit crashes Expected results: - no crash - gedit to use one process per display Additional info: This problem has existed for a good while.
Bastien, should gedit be appending the display to the string it passes to bacon_message_connection_new () ?
The upstream patch looks fine to me: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=78197&action=view There's already support for multi-head in gedit, it was fixed in 2.14 at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=333129

Hmm, seems better now anyway.
