[Bug 175909] Re: Administrator button fails to work in kde-settings and kcontrol

[Richard]

@heu: Perhaps you have a different variant of this problem.  The default
Ubuntu/Kubuntu setup is that your hostname has an entry for 127.0.1.1 in
the /etc/hosts file, but it would be good if those who still have this
problem can test this.

Could you try reverting your hosts file to original setup, and see if
you get the problem again?  If so, maybe you could try the 'gksudo
kcontrol' or DCOP server shutdown and restart workarounds, and post any
output here.

My hosts file has always had a 192.168.1.x address for this host - this
did not change with the upgrade from Feisty to Gutsy, so if it is the
cause then it's a regression.
