annoying authorization icon
i googled for it and i found one guy who was having the same problem, but nobody ever answered his question. so it kind of leaves me in the dark as to what could be going on here.

If you're using KDE, it might be krootwarning acting up:
$ rpm -qi krootwarning

Version : 10.1 Vendor: Mandrakesoft
Release : 2mdk Build Date: Wed 06 Oct 2004 09:09:54 AM PDT
[...]
Summary : Warning box displayed when you are using KDE with system administrator permissions.
Description :

Hmmm, my guess is that it's a Gnome specific problem. I've never seen that in KDE.

its gotta have something to do with gnome, because even with the krootwarning uninstalled it still likes to do that. thankfully i dont intend on keeping mandriva to all too much longer. im going to gentoo once i feel like im capable of it.
because its also quite possible that its a mandriva issue, nobody else has had this problem... except for mandriva LE users.
