Very nice!

Bug report here:
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=150729

I am trying to find which package it is, but still no success (I 
searched for the string
"Endring i denne delen krever root-tilgang"
that is present in that dialogue. I found it only in 
nb/messages/kdelibs, but that file is OK in our repository, and (strange 
enough) a substitution with our mo-package instead of Kubuntus did not 
help either.

Then i searched for "Color calibration image", one of the few 
non-japanes strings there (most of them actually are english).
$ grep -ir 'Color calibration image' *|grep -v .svn
kde3-trunk/templates/messages/extragear-utils/guidance.pot:msgid "Color 
calibration image:"
kde4-trunk/nb/docmessages/kdebase/kcontrol_kcmdisplay.po:msgid "Color 
calibration image"
kde4-trunk/nn/docmessages/kdebase/kcontrol_kcmdisplay.po:msgid "Color 
calibration image"
kde4-trunk/templates/docmessages/kdebase/kcontrol_kcmdisplay.pot:msgid 
"Color calibration image"
kde4-trunk/templates/docmessages/kdebase-runtime/kcontrol_kcmdisplay.pot:msgid 
"Color calibration image"

A search for 'gamma controls how your monitor' gave the same files.

It seems that this part was not translated into Norwegian for kde3, only 
for kde4.

Somehow Japanese, together with English is the fall-back for Norwegian 
in this case :-P
