system-config-services works for me. It does take quite a few seconds
to come up and plow through the list.
When it's hanging, attach strace to it and see what the process is doing.
I did a strace pid attachment, nothing interesting revealed, until I
moved the mouse
around on the GUI and all I got was screen activity data. Killing SCS
revealed
nothing relevant. I started SCS under strace and gawd, just too much
data, especially
the polling data, that throws much confusion into the mix.
Seems I will have to do brute-force, one-by-one services removal to see
which one is
the offending service to SCS.
