I confirm the same problem here with this pre-installed Gnome application 
System > Administration > System Testing on Ubuntu 9.10RC, e.g. with tests on 
audio, video modes, kernel modesetting, disk...
For instance:
<code>
Disk benchmark:

/bin/sh: /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/disk_bench_test: Permission denied

Is this ok?
</code>

I guess all the shell/python scripts for package "checkbox" (Checkbox System 
Testing) should have at least their execute permission set (or be called via 
their corresponding interpreter?):
<code>

/usr/share/checkbox/scripts/xrandr_cycle
</code>

All tests looked to be running OK after just setting the execute bit on these 
files, e.g. via:
<code>
sudo chmod a+x /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/*
</code>

So I guess this would be just a simple file execute permission fix in
this package "checkbox"?

Several scripts fail due to lack of execute permissions
