Bug Description

When I run displayconfig from a konsole it doesn't exit (using hardy heron alpha 6)

Run "kdesudo displayconfig" from a konsole, don't do anything. Press the close button.
The close button won't work and the following will be printed on the konsole:

kdesudo displayconfig
passprompt

kbuildsycoca running...

xorg.conf attached. The bug is not that high priority as normally you don't call it standalone. In the integrated way you don't have a close button. But it may be an indication of another problem.

---------------
kde-guidance (0.8.0svn20080103-0ubuntu11) hardy; urgency=low

  [ Andreas Wenning ]
  * Added kubuntu_24_displayconfig_no_gamma.patch: As we cannot check if
    the video driver supports live gamma changes, we should catch any
    exceptions generated by lacking support. (LP: #201092, #201468).
  * Added kubuntu_25_kde-powermanager_allways_change_brightness.patch
    which disables the internal check for not setting the same bright-
    ness as last time. Some laptops can change brightness in hardware
    and other programs can change it through HAL, so we should allways
    try to change the brightness.

  [ Guillaume Martres ]
  * Added kubuntu_26_kde-powermanager_handle_hal_dbus_restarts.patch so
    the powermanager better handles dbus/hal restarts. (LP: #123812).

  [ Scott Kitterman ]
  * Added kubuntu_27_displayconfig-restore_try_getsize_again.patch to try to
    get size from screen 0 if the first attempt failed (LP: #206509)
