Bug Description

Hi there.

I wouldn't call it "invalid" bug report (considering the end-user perspective). As far as I remember, this hack (pkexec env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY gedit) was not needed in previous versions of Ubuntu, so it looks like a "regression" bug to me.

Anyways, is there any way to get this partial solution stored more permanently in the computer? (adding something to some .bashrc or something; sorry, I'm not that expert in handling default values of environment variables, so some tips would help end users).

Thanks in advanced for your support, of course.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately we can't fix it, because your description didn't include enough information. You may find it helpful to read 'How to report bugs effectively' http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem. We have instructions on debugging some types of problems at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures. At a minimum, we need: 1. the specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the problem, 2. the behavior you expected, and 3. the behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible). Thanks!
