2008-04-07 13:54:30 Brian Murray description Hady Beta since update to kernel 2.6.15 neither synaptic nor update-manager can be launched from the main menu. Seems that gksu is unable to ask for passphrase, because also in a x-term the command 'gksu synaptic' does not work. The applications themselfs work properly: in a root-terminal (I got a true root-account here) I can call synaptic and update-manager and they work properly. root@pp:/home/ingo# apt-cache policy gksu gksu: Installiert:2.0.0-5ubuntu2 Mögliche Pakete:2.0.0-5ubuntu2 Versions-Tabelle: *** 2.0.0-5ubuntu2 0 500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com hardy/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status Hardy Beta since update to kernel 2.6.24.15 neither synaptic nor update-manager can be launched from the main menu.
