[Bug 542744] Re: user group administration tool freezes temporary and reports failed authentication even for successfull actions
Usually I prefer to use a simple useradd -m, it was the first time ever I tried the GUI for this simple task. And I checked the group properties just to be sure that everything is fine. I did not realise that the group is actually created, so I tried to do it by hand. Call it a misunderstanding by an unexperienced GUI user ;-) I think it is important to get the patch for the freeze fix into lucid, but the other point is not really urgent, time to fix it for the next release 10.10.

The patch failed because my org.freedesktop.SystemToolsBackends.service is almost empty. This is the full file contents: [D-BUS Service] Name=org.freedesktop.SystemToolsBackends Exec=/usr/sbin/system-tools-backends User=root That's all, end of file, and none of the other files in the directory looks even remotely similar to the patch. Did the last dist-upgrade one hour ago. I'am using the netbook remix, is it that different from the desktop edition? -- user group administration tool freezes temporary and reports failed authentication even for successfull actions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/542744 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-system-tools in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

That's it! Now it works fine. No freeze anymore. But still: If I add a new user, I would expect the tool to add a group of the same name and set this as the main group for the new user as it happens with the initial default user on system installation. -- user group administration tool freezes temporary and reports failed authentication even for successfull actions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/542744 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-system-tools in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Yes, you are right, it is two different errors: On creation of a group I get a permission error. On adding members to a pre-existing group I get an unknown error. But in both cases I get this temporary freeze prior to the error message. -- user group administration tool freezes temporary and reports failed authentication even for successfull actions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/542744 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-system-tools in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
