Subject: gnome-system-monitor: Renice error incorrect
Package: gnome-system-monitor
Version: 2.3.0-1
Severity: normal
                                                                                            
 
When attempting to renice a process (r-click -> change priority...), if you
try to decrease the nice value you get the error "you must be root to renice
a process lower than 0...", however you must also be root to _reduce_ the
nice value (according to renice man page). This leads to a confusing error
message. Solution: Mention the "you must be root to decrease a nice value of
a process or set a nice value less than zero".
