Public bug reported: Kuser is the only working user manager I could quickly find for ubuntu 12.04. The app assumes that it is being runned as root but the icon that appears in the unity launcher runs it as a normal user. So in order to get it to work properly at the moment you have to run it from the commandline eg. "sudo kuser" which semi defeats having a gui for this :)
