Bug Description

Binary package hint: checkbox

When running the disk benchmark, the following message displays:

Disk benchmark:

/bin/sh: /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/disk_bench_test: Permission denied

Is this ok?

Doesn't seem OK to me (Note that I can start checkbox from the System Menu, without having to sudo)

Permissions on file
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 431 2009-10-14 17:23 /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/disk_bench_test

Also, when I try to report the bug using the built in bug reporting, this fails
I select "Other problem", click next, and get the message
Please use "ubuntu-bug <packagename>" to report a bug against the particular package

Followed by an error popup
Could not determine the package or source package name.
Only option is close, when I press this the app closes.

The script /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/disk_bench_test needs to be executable. Until this bug is fixed you can run the test by applying the fix manually :

sudo chmod +x /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/disk_bench_test
