Thanks for your bugreport. This is on ubuntu 11.10, correct?

Could you please check if you have the "policykit-1-gnome" package installed? When its missing update-manager can't put up the permission dialog.

is there anything else unusual about your system. There is one output releated to network-manager. Do you have this package installed ? And if so, is it generally working? Anything else that might be unusual about the system and give us a clue what causes the error?
