[Bug 363772] [NEW] Check-gtk works only with root. Is that normal?

[Fabio Colombo]

Public bug reported:

Hope to be in the right place, I've got problem with system testing
tool.

It works only with the root account. I remember that in Intrepid it works also with the normal user.
This is what i get from terminal:

blackdiamond at blackdiamond-desktop:~$ /usr/bin/checkbox-gtk
