https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D226212 Bug ID: 226212 Summary: Not allowed to make system changes in KDE Product: Base System Version: 11.1-RELEASE Hardware: amd64 OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: misc Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: slava@planetslav.ca Created attachment 191009 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D191009&action= =3Dedit Can't change time/timezone Hello, I'm running KDE Plasma desktop 5.12.1 from Area51 on Freebsd 11.1. Everyth= ing works great and is stable, however I'm not able to make changes to some sys= tem settings which should normally prompt for the root password when required. = On Freebsd I'm just not being allowed to change them an shown a message "You a= re not allowed to save the configuration" (see attached screenshots). Even if= I make changes, the OK button remains greyed out, so I can't apply them. >From some searching, it appears that to make system changes from the UI, po= lkit is required; I confirmed all the polkit packages for KDE are installed. I'm not sure if extra configuration is required, I haven't had this issue on numerous Linux systems I've used with Plasma desktop and have never had to = work with polkit directly. I've found this error in the .local/share/sddm/xorg-session.log (this is not directly related to sddm, the same problem exists if launching startkde from cli without sddm): ** (process:983): CRITICAL **: polkit_agent_listener_register_with_options: assertion 'POLKIT_IS_SUBJECT (subject)' failed "Cannot register authentication agent!" Authentication agent result: false Couldn't register listener! P.S. [ade] from #kde-freebsd sent me --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
