The actual problem seems to be that almost all PolicyKit actions seem to have vanished in karmic... I'm not sure though whether this is intentional or a bug. These are the actions that remain:
$ polkit-action org.freedesktop.policykit.read org.freedesktop.policykit.revoke org.freedesktop.policykit.grant org.freedesktop.policykit.modify-defaults org.freedesktop.packagekit.cancel-foreign org.freedesktop.packagekit.package-install org.freedesktop.packagekit.package-install-untrusted org.freedesktop.packagekit.system-trust-signing-key org.freedesktop.packagekit.package-eula-accept org.freedesktop.packagekit.package-remove org.freedesktop.packagekit.system-update org.freedesktop.packagekit.system-rollback org.freedesktop.packagekit.system-sources-configure org.freedesktop.packagekit.system-sources-refresh org.freedesktop.packagekit.system-network-proxy-configure com.ubuntu.checkbox.test com.ubuntu.checkbox.info org.blueman.network.setup org.blueman.hal.manager org.blueman.dhcp.client The GUI shows the same. -- [Kubuntu Karmic] In PolicyKit Authorization console can't set rules to device https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/450687 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
