All help is appreciated. I just installed Freebsd 8.1 amd64 with the kde 4.45 package. I am trying to get the PolicyKit to work with hal using the kde policyKit 'manager'. I have tried both running as root or using su. In both cases, when I pull up the (KDE) PolicyKit screen, it does not allow me to change anything. The modify settings is greyed out in the default area section, even if I change something and if I try and grant a user privilages, the "Grant" button stays disabled after I choose a user. Any idea how I can get this to work? Is there some system setting I have forgotten? Thanks in advance. Mark Moellering
