[Bug 776678] Re: gtk-warning after running gksu gedit

 

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 761836 ***
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/761836

i'm using a fresh install of ubuntu 11.04 on 64bits, and I also have this problem.
I'm trying to use this command:
gksudo gedit /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.devicekit.disks.policy
so i can edit the mount policy to work like it did in Ubuntu 9.10 and did in Fedora 12.
So, if I'm on 64bits it means the bug also affects distribution?
