The admin mode in kde4 systemsettings is planned for kde 4.2 as you can read in the feature plan http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDE4/4.2_Feature_Plan Status ↓ Project ↓ Description ↓ Contact ↓ TODOSystem Settings add Administrator mode button ? ?

[Bug 184491] Re: [KDE 4] Cannot get admin privileges in KDE4.0 System settings (Date/Time, Login Manager)
I confirm the bug as of today. No single systemsettings module allows administration rights. The /usr/lib/kde4/lib/kde4/libexec/kdesu /usr/lib/kde4/bin/systemsettings workaround doesn't work but rather blocks the application: hard kill needed. Moreover, a number of modules is missing, like the Users and the Printers.

Is this a distribution related bug or a KDE specific one?

[Bug 184491] Re: [KDE 4] Cannot get admin privileges in KDE4.0 System settings (Date/Time, Login Manager)
This is not distribution specific. And not a regression since KDE 3 uses kcontrolcenter and KDE4 uses systemsettings.

[Bug 184491] Re: [KDE 4] Cannot get admin privileges in KDE4.0 System settings (Date/Time, Login Manager)
enzo: there are some workarounds to do GUI management in KDE4.0x: *if you have kde3 installed on the same machine you can easily use the KDE3 versions of kcontrol or systemsettings to gain root privileges. *if you want to manage printers on a box with CUPS installed, point your browser at localhost:631 or subsitute localhost for an IP address. lydia: I haven't seen the solution in KDE4.1 so the method may already be different, but it would be nice if the visualisation of being root in systemsettings could be less ugly and more subtle than the red box border in KDE3 thanks! -- [KDE 4] Cannot get admin privileges in KDE4.0 System settings (Date/Time, Login Manager) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/184491 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
