Hi, I have a bit of a trouble with proper policy-kit settings. I’m running a standalone openbox session for desktop usage. For login I have a simple script in my .zprofile file, which will start the X server if I log in from the first virtual terminal (which is what I’m doing 99% of the time). if [[ `tty` == "/dev/tty1" ]]; then startx &! logout fi my xinitrc is the following: exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch openbox-session The problem is that in the X session the consolekit session’s is-local and active properties are FALSE hence the removable device automount breaks (I guess it could affect other things I dont use) If I start the X server with startx manually from the tty2 after logging in, both values will be TRUE and device automounting works fine. Should I switch to a proper login manager or is there a quick/easy fix for this? -- J.
J I'm having a similar problem. Check your boot log to see if dbus started properly. I'm having some of the same problems and am gathering info from logs etc. If dbus failed try to start it with [ sudo /etc/rc.d/dbus start ] see if automounting works, it did for me.
