[OpenIndiana-discuss] mate-system-monitor crashes

[Tim Mooney]

In regard to: Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] mate-system-monitor crashes,...:

When I web search this error:

>> unhandled exception (type Glib::Error) in signal handler:
>> domain: g-io-error-quark
>> code  : 0
>> what  : Unable to find default local file monitor type

I see hits for it for many Linux distros too, along with a similar variant
for "directory" monitor type.

I wasn't able to find any definitive fixes, most of the responses
essentially amounted to voodoo.

The Linux systems that experienced this error also had an exception and
a segfault, so segfault may not be unique to OI or Illumos.  It might just
be secondary to the "local file monitor type".

I think you're correct.
