Hi,
so that output means that the smscon application installation is broken (or might not be installed regularly et all?? ). An installation via application manager or dpkg would have make sure that a password is not asked from user.

So how to proceed in your case?

I recommend to de-install both, first smscon-editor then smscon via application manager. Then, when both apps are removed, enter xterm, become root and execute following commands:

Code:
rm -rf /opt/smscon
rm -rf /opt/smscon-editor
rm -rf /home/user/.smscon-editor
Then install smscon and then smscon-editor in this order via application manager from extras devel repository and start again!

This is rigorous but may bring you back on the the track!

Let me know your experience.
