unable to authenticate/execute the action: (code 3)

Hello,
Whenever I try to do(apply) some root tasks in systemsettings, I get this error: unable to authenticate/execute the action: (code 3). First, when I hit APPLY button, nothing happends, and when I click CLOSE or choose some other conf menu, it ask me do I wish to applu, or cancel, I click APPLY and I close window, then I get an mentioned error: unable to authenticate/execute the action: (code 3).
Is this maybe ralted with dbus?

I have the same problem with kde-4.6

[codeUnable to authenticate/execute the action: (code 2)][/code]


The interesting part is that i have two amd64 machines with kde-4.6, but only one is experiencing this problem. :(
Very Annoying!
I can`t change any settings in "systemsettings" that requires root privileges.The problem persist even i start systemsetings from root konsole window or with kdesu!
