Can't launch system monitor under Ubuntu

Since I upgraded to Ubuntu Karmic (fresh install from disc), I haven't been able to launch the system monitor. Nothing happens if I launch it via the Applications menu on the top. If I try to launch it via the terminal, I get this output:

sirupsen@puter:~$ gnome-system-monitor

** (gnome-system-monitor:13845): WARNING **: SELinux was found but is not enabled.


GLib-GObject-ERROR **: Attempt to add property GtkMenuBar::local to class after it was derived
aborting...
Aborted

Does anyone have any idea of what I could do to fix this, so I would be able to use the system monitor again?

You can try changing the theme and (if enabled) disabling the global menu bar.

Woah! It worked to diable the global menu. :) Thanks a bunch! – Sirupsen – 2009-11-07T18:05:09.123

Good. Let's hope this gets fixed as soon as possible. – alfplayer – 2009-11-07T18:15:46.153
