In gedit 3.8.3, the top bar menu doesn't have the usual menu items.
A normal invocation of ‘gedit’ results in a top bar menu with these items:
New Window
Preferences
Help
About
Quit
When run in a ‘su - root’ session, though, the top bar menu only has:
Quit
Other times, the top bar menu simply does not appear when run as root.
This problem also occurs if run as root by ‘su -u root gedit’.
The following error message appears in the console:
(gedit:20346): dconf-WARNING **: failed to commit changes to dconf: The
connection is closed
