Just the grep shows up.

Running users-admin from the terminal is silent, even when I click on the "Click to make changes" button. So it doesn't say much but I will paste it anyways:

pfred1@spot:~$ users-admin

Maybe this is more useful?

Probably not but just so you know I'm not messing with you. This might be of some use?

pfred1@spot:~$ ps aux | grep polkit

I thought of it just before I sent the mail off.

So could you post the output of 'ps x | grep polkit' here? Also, please
run 'users-admin' from a terminal, and paste the messages here too.

Status in “system-tools-backends” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete

Bug description:
Binary package hint: system-tools-backends

1) Ubuntu  9.10  - the Karmic Koala
2) gnome-system-tools 2.28.1-0ubuntu2
3) When I clicked on the "Click to make changes" button in users-admin I expected a dialog box to pop up so I could type in my password.

4) Nothing happened.

P.S. sudo users-admin in a terminal did make the application pop up fully functional. Just without the "Click to make changes" button at all. Thanks for reading this.
