Hello,
If I'm not wrong, systemd makes consolekit superfluous. This is what I thought it took for polkit to work with systemd:
* compile polkit with --enable-systemd * enable the systemd polkit service * that's it?
But that's not it. Although polkit seems to work in console, it does not work in X. This is not terribly surprising, because I haven't done anything equivalent to launching my WM under "ck-launch-session", as I used to do with consolekit. Is there an equivalent way of launching the window manager under systemd-acting-as-consolekit?
I should explain that I'm using no display manager, and I'd like to keep it this way, if at all possible.
Do you start your window manager with startx? I start fluxbox that way, and switching to: startx -- vt01 prevents a different virtual terminal from being started, and everything works fine. -- John K Pate http://jkpate.net/ The University of Edinburgh is a charitable body, registered in Scotland, with registration number SC005336.
