Bug Description

Binary package hint: xfce4-taskmanager

Hi,

the xfce4-taskmanager crashes randomly.
when i start it from console, i get this msg:

thomas@xapper:~$ xfce4-taskmanager

(xfce4-taskmanager:4908): Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtktreeview.c: line 3973 (gtk_tree_view_bin_expose): assertion `has_next' failed.
There is a disparity between the internal view of the GtkTreeView,
and the GtkTreeModel. This generally means that the model has changed
without letting the view know. Any display from now on is likely to
be incorrect.
---------------------------
an other little problem:

the image in the table headers is not accurate. For example, it supposes that the list starts with the highest number, but the contrary happens.

I run it from the terminal and don't see such errors. Do you get this with all stock dapper packages no xfce or other libs from svn right?
Do these texts occur on every start? How do the crashes relate to these warnings?

I've been able to reproduce this bug. But it doesn't happen all the time. Steps to (maybe) reproduce:
1. start the taskmanager
2. start an other app (I launched 'top' in xterm)
3. clic (several times) on the column titles.
The taskmanager freezes.
I only have xubuntu packages installed (no svn).

Will have a look at the sources.

I have the svn version checked out, can you point me to the change I'd like
to apply it to 0.3.1
if it is self-contained enough? It would be too risky at this point to put
svn 0.4 in the ubuntu release ;)

thanks
Jani
