Application: polkit-kde-authentication-agent-1 (0.99.0)
KDE Platform Version: 4.10.3 "release 1" (Compiled from sources)
Qt Version: 4.8.4
Operating System: Linux 3.7.10-1.11-default i686
Distribution: "openSUSE 12.3 (i586)"

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed:
It kept on asking me for the root password randomly and the application was kde and it was asking to get brightness but it wasn't taking my root password and after asking me a few times and it failing I would get an authorization failed message and I know I was using the right root password because I was running updates in Yast and Yast was taking my root password when it was asking for elevation for all the updates that it was making. Oddly enough I didn't actually notice any other symptoms and I had no display issues at all. Hope that helps!

The crash can be reproduced sometimes.
