Root password is asked before partitionmanager starts, not after clicking apply. Were you asked for root password when launching partitionmanager?

When I click Apply there is only a message box asking to confirm operations and after accepting it progress dialog is shown.
Comment 2 mombelli.mauro 2017-05-30 19:06:48 UTC
you are completly right, it ask for root at startup, when i click
apply i think i DONT have root and tell me if i want to run the
application just in user mode; if i say to continue as user, it crash,
if cancel, it quit.

Comment 3 Andrius Štikonas 2017-05-30 19:13:07 UTC
Yeah, it is not supposed to run as user. It is not implemented. Ideally we want to have polkit/kauth support where password is asked when doing privileged operations but nobody implemented that and it is a fairly big refactoring...
(Actually gparted also doesn't have polkit support yet).

I'll close this bug then. Use root mode for now.
Comment 4 mombelli.mauro 2017-05-30 19:35:14 UTC
I AM USING ROOT, he THINK im not root (password is correct, if wrong
it display error).

Ok, I think this is a duplicate of bug #375394. The backtrace in this crash looks the same. That bug is fixed in kpmcore master version but not in currently released version. If you have any possibility to compile kpmcore git version then you can try.

Also double check your kdesu configuration, maybe you distro did not set it up correctly. Depending on whether there is a separate root account with its own password or user password is used to gain admin privileges, kdesu needs to be told so (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/sudo#kdesu).
