If I enter a wrong password there is a short delay and then it tells

If I enter the correct password the password box disappears immediately
but I don't get the admin page.
I'll see if I can find any more clues before filing a bug.
Immediately upon selecting Trinity Control Center / Peripherals /
Device Manager it prompts me as shown attached for root password.
Behavior is then as described above for Monitor and Display.
FWIW I have "Screen Size and Rotate" in my systray. I can open
that and can get into administrator mode from there. Looks like the
problem is with kcontrol. (4:14.1.0~s1036-0debian11.0.0+25 amd64)
FWIW unprivileged Trinity Control Center / Appearance and Themes /
Background works fine but privileged Trinity Control Center / System
Administration / Date & Time misbehaves as described above.
All I get in .xsession-errors is:
[2023/04/01 21:43:46.933] X Error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) 3

There's a
thread here about a mysterious tdehwdevicetray > process which
has been appearing in my systray.
tdehwdevicetray is a new systray application and is part of R14.1.0.
It helps to provide quick access to storage disks and operations, but you
can choose not to use it (see other email I sent a short while ago)
Same happens with Trinity Control Center / System
Administration
/ Monitor and Display.
Seems to work fine here, I get the red-framed admin page after I put the
root password. While
investigating this I tried to go into Trinity Control
Center / Peripherals / Device Manager. I enter the root
password but I don't get a Device Manager.
Where did you enter the root password in Trinity Control Center /
Peripherals / Device Manager? It seems it can be browsed without being
root.
