mintbackup not working [SOLVED]

Hi:

I just installed Katya. I've been using LinuxMint 10 (don't remember the code name) for a while and it was ok. I did a complete data backup usign mintbackup. Since I installed katya on a different partition and used my old /home I didn't actually need to restore the backup, but, since it's a little old, I wanted to take a new backup of my current configuration. I tried to run mintbackup, but I can't get passed the authentication dialog.

I run it form the command line and got this:

Code: Select all

I tried removing it and reinstalling using apt-get but, then I got this:

Again, just after entering root password.

Thanks

Hi:

Apparently the problem was not on mintbackup, but on the X session. I don't understand what happened, but I tried to run another program (unetbootin), and I got the same error (something about not being able to connect to the x server), so I just restarted X and it worked.
