Description _ gordonp 2008-09-29 16:44:39 UTC 
If no ps command is found when a user presses the Attach button then an empty panel
is displayed. Since the user's expectation is for this panel to be populated with
processes, the user (most likely) won't understand why its empty.

We should display a Warning or Error dialog telling the user we couldn't get the
process list. We should also disable the OK button and require the user to Cancel
the attach.
