(rough translation of the dialog) On another system I have, it works, and I'm scratching my head wondering what could be the cause here.

Expected Results: A way to start the various capplets Additional info:
Fedora Core 2 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC3 updates or in the FC4 test release, reopen and change the version to match.
This WORKSFORME in more recent releases. As mentioned above, FC2 is Fedora Legacy (as is FC3) and this is not a security problem.
