Bug Description

When I go into system utilities and try to access administrator mode, the status
remains loading and never asks for admin password. It did this for all the
different categories in sys utilities. My network card wasn't configured, could
that have anything to do with it?

I guess you're talking about the "Control Center"?

it.

I'd say it's not the very same bug. Please refer to my last comment in #8681 (I can reproduce this bug,
but no longer #8681).
