[Bug 924257] [NEW] USB Creator only working from CLI Ubuntu 11.10

[Andy Bleaden]

Public bug reported:

Cannot seem to get USB Creator working directly from menu.

Have to use terminal via sudo usb-creator-gtk

Some occassions even this this has not been successful in producing
bootable images

Used this tool for many years now since it first appeared but never even
had this error

If I use without cli it throws back error
org.freedesktop.DBus.Python.dbus.exceptions.DBusException: com.ubuntu.USBCreator.Error.NotAuthorized

Tried using Ubuntu 11.10 .iso and Ubuntu 12.04 test iso both of which
work using unetbootin etc but no longer with usb-creator
