[Bug 1813428] Re: "sorry, you are not running GNOME or KDE" while running GNOME

[Brian Murray]

So in Cosmic the process is now gnome-session-binary which is greater
than 15 characters and per the pgrep man page:

"The process name used for matching is limited to the 15 characters
present in the output of /proc/pid/stat.  Use the -f option to match
against the complete command line, /proc/pid/cmdline."

So this needs to be updated to the new binary name and the match should
be switched from -x to -f so the code is clear about that which we are
searching for.
