Ok, i did a fresh install on this computer, ubuntu 10.10 server then put desktop on top of it.
I can run sudo -i, enter password, gain root access, but when i click system -> administration and it asks for my password, it always says my password is wrong.
Any ideas?
note: i ran update manager, and my password worked fine there.
2nd note: when i click system administration and run a task, the password screen looks different
Little more digging shows, it only occures on screens that use the login type of,
Enter the administrative password:
It doesn't even give me options for what user to use. And I am using the account created on install.
Programs effected:
[CODE]
Samba
Synaptic Package Manager (yet update manager works fine)
[CODE]
