Not possible to execute/authenticate action: 6
by Lucélio Gomes de Freitas
Hi,
I open systemsetting to change timezone to (GMT-3), and after clicking
"apply", I get the error on KDE control module, "Not possible to
execute/authenticate the accion: 6", and timezone is updated. After
the restart of the system, my timezone setting is wrong again, and get
to the previous(GMT).
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Can't - sometimes - leave kde
by Martin Kho
Hi,
This is a really weird issue. Sometimes when I want to reboot, shutdown or log
out ('f' -> Leave -> Log out / Restart / Shut Down) nothing happens (the count
down messagebox doesn't appear) . Lock, Sleep and Hibernate are okay. There
are no error messages in .xsession-errors, /var/log/messages
/var/log/Xorg.0.log, /var/log/kdm.log and/or /var/log/secure.
When log out etc. fails authentication more generally seems to fail. e.g. I
tried to change the shutdown command (System Settings -> Login Screen ->
Shutdown). After pressing the Apply button, a messagebox appeared telling that
authentication failed. In /var/log/secure the following messages appeared:
May 14 23:17:12 ps-1866 polkitd(authority=local): Registered Authentication
Agent for unix-session:/org/freedesktop/ConsoleKit/Session1 (system bus name
:1.55 [/usr/libexec/kde4/polkit-kde-authentication-agent-1], object path
/org/kde/PolicyKit1/AuthenticationAgent, locale en_US.UTF-8)
May 14 23:18:14 ps-1866 polkitd(authority=local): Operator of unix-
session:/org/freedesktop/ConsoleKit/Session1 FAILED to authenticate to gain
authorization for action org.kde.kcontrol.kcmkdm.save for unix-
process:2171:397117 [/usr/bin/systemsettings -caption System Settings --icon
preferences-system] (owned by unix-user:martin)
The above issue happens both in up to date Fedora 16 and 17.
Have anyone else seen this? Any ideas how I can get more information on this
issue?
Thanks,

kde-4.8.3 in kde-testing
by Rex Dieter
Got kde-4.8.3 f16/f17 builds in kde-testing, and queue'd for
updates-testing as well.
For f17, there's a chance we can ship with that (instead of 4.8.2),
assuming we can some good feedback. (else, it'll just be available as an
update afterward).
Test test test, and enjoy.
