Modem Monitor not taking sudo password

[Zabil C.M]

The "Modem Monitor" applet does not authenticate using the sudo password.
Probably it might be still checking with the "root" password and not the user
password (user with sudo permissions)

Steps to replicate

1. Add the "Modem Monitor" applet to the panel

2. Right click on the "Modem Monitor" applet and select "properties"

3. It displays a message for authentication and throws a password dialog.

4. Enter the sudo users password in the text and click enter

5. It says that the password is invalid.

Thanks for your bugreport.

I can't reproduce this problem here. Both "activate" and "Properties" take my
user-password.

The latest update I did on my hoary on 22nd March solved this issue.
The problem no longer appears.

forgot to add:
when want to select cpu frequency, it ask me for password, but all the time I've got error message that password is invalid. For sure password is correct and from sudo user I'm trying to change it.

Also, this doesn't occurs on 64bit OS.
