Bug Description
Somebody (not naming names, but grrr :) unplugged my laptop while I was away, and it went into hibernation. When I woke it up, I found a password dialog saying:
"Authentication is needed to run `/usr/bin/
Under "details" it says…
Command: /usr/sbin/
Run As: Super User (root)
Action: org.freedesktop
Vendor: The PolicyKit Project
Canceling it made my screen go brighter, and a notification bubble popped up as if I'd pressed one of the backlight controls.
