Public bug reported: i am running ubuntu intrepid 64bit and the bug reported and closed in #236516 is still / again here:
under "system>administration>users and groups" the add-user button is inactive (gray). i also cannot change settings of my own account, as if i am some user, but i am THE user.. everything is grayed out. so i could not, by any means add a new user, nor change my own settings. when launching this application through xterm $ sudo users-admin i get following message: ** (users-admin:15450): CRITICAL **: Unable to lookup session information for process '15450' contrary the following works: xhost +local: sudo su - export DISPLAY=:0 users-admin ** Affects: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- sudo users-admin does not offer "add user" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272400 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
