hey everyone. I have a very bizzare error on my fresh 32 bit install on my laptop that is a 1.8 celeron M 512 MB memory. ok anytime I click on an "administration" panel in Desktop in the menu I am getting a "You are not allowed to acess the system configuration" instead of a root password prompt. I tried as a regular user in terminal and got the same thing no messages. I tried to sudo as root and got the some thing again but got this message twice in a row then same error: nate@64studio:~$ sudo network-admin (network-admin:6941): Liboobs-WARNING **: There was an unknown error communicating with the backends: Process /usr/share//system-tools-backends-2.0/scripts/SystemToolsBackends.pl exited with status 2 (network-admin:6941): Liboobs-WARNING **: There was an unknown error communicating with the backends: Process /usr/share//system-tools-backends-2.0/scripts/SystemToolsBackends.pl exited with status 2 nate@64studio:~$ any ideas? I should also mention I have updated to the latest test release (I believe it's 2.0 rc4). I really like alot of the new apps.
