Synaptic is ignoring me !

[imagiazone]

Hi,

I have used Ubuntu for many months. Yesterday I decided to give a try to Kunbuntu.

It have installed from Synaptic without problem. I even successfuly added some applets.

Today, when I try to launch Synaptic ( or any other "admin" programs by the way ) it asks my password, the hourglass rotate for a while then nothing. No message, just the blank desktop ! If Itry to launch it again it just ignoring me !

Of course Synaptic seems not recognizing my password as an admin's one. But on this PC, I have only one user. This user is the same that I was using with my Ubuntu installation without problem for months.

When I have moved to Kubuntu, the admin privileges should have been reconducted,isn't it ?

Thanks for help.

Could it comes from my settings language ?
