Public bug reported: Binary package hint: systemsettings-kde4
I'm running the KDE 4.2 Beta 2 packages in Kubuntu 8.10. The "Date & Time" systemsettings module does not properly call kdesudo so any operations it tries (such as changing the time, utilizing NTP, or changing the time zone), fail. When I enter the Date & Time module and make any change and click Apply the following message boxes pop up: "Unable to contact time server: ." "Can not set date." "Error setting new time zone." If I run systemsettings from a terminal, I get the following output: systemsettings(15442) Dtime::save: Set date QDateTime("Tue Dec 23 22:32:42 2008") kdesu: Unknown option 'attach'. kdesu: Use --help to get a list of available command line options. I have also tried running systemsettings using kdesudo and sudo with the same result. It appears that the applet attempts to run the commands using kdesudo regardless of whether it is running as root or not. ** Affects: kdebase-workspace (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Unable to make any changes in Date / Time kcontrol https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/312569 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdebase-workspace in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
