It's very likely that this is the same bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/policykit/+bug/1077546 It affects me too. If i try to start gparted with the commands "pkexec gparted" or "gparted-pkexec", it doesn't work. But if i type "gtk-launch gparted" it works perfectly! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1082972 Title: Launching apps with pkexec exits before I am able to type the password To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/policykit-1/+bug/1082972/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have the same problem with GS on quantal. Both synaptic and gparted show the same behavior, gksu-ing them works flawlessly. The original message is: "Sorry, that didn't work.
