BTW, maybe it's not sufficient to restart hal, since theis isn't technically a HAL file, but rather a policy kit file. So I'd suggest logging out and then in again after the change.
HTH,

Well, I guess that would be yet another bug in PolicyKit. Per the PolicyKit.conf man page: <quote> Changes to this configuration file are immediately propagated to running processes using the PolicyKit library. If the configuration file is invalid, processes using this library will log this fact to the system logger and the library will only only return no as the answer to processes using it. </quote> Of all the changes I've made, no errors logged so it should be happily propagating, ... or fornicating, ... or whatever PolicyKit does to my system ;-) -- David C.
