I'm getting authorization error when trying to update but it never asks me for my password... see screencast clip below

Open a konsole and type: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

This lets you update, but doesn't fix the problem. Any idea why Discover is broke, I'm also having permissions issues with solaar...

My guess would be its has a problem talking with policykit to get root access.. if you run discover from a konsole you should get a bit more insight as to what its doing and where its failing.
