I can approve this. Thanks for this info!

Awesome! | Code: | | exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session fluxbox |
now fixes all my problems with a dysfunctional trash:///, Computer:///, et al. in Nautilus running fluxbox as the WM

|
|
Hi all!
I can't get automount to work on Xfce 4.8. I followed to the letter https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-858965-highlight-.html and I managed to get reboot and shutdown buttons to work properly, but I can't work out what might be wrong because I can't see any of my USB sticks nor external HDD when I plug them
I don't see them neither in the desktop, nor in Thunar (thunar-volman installed).
I really don't know what info to post, so I guess is better that you ask me what to put and I will show you.
I use slim as a login manager and I start Xfce with | Code: | | ck-launch-session dbus-launch startxfce4 |
and that enables the reboot/shutdown buttons.
Thanks for your help!

At the bottom of the HOWTO it says you should run
| Code: |
$ ck-list-sessions
...
active = TRUE <- The most important part.
|
Do you see that on your system? ie active = TRUE.
Cheers

Yes, I do have an active session (otherwise I wouldn't be able to shutdown my system)

login-session-id = '1'
Session1:

And if the answer is "Yes" to this question: Can you mount the devices in terminal using gvfs-mount? Is gnome-base/gvfs built with USE="-hal udev gdu"?
Thunar is using gvfs, gvfs is using gnome-disk-utility and that's using udisks.
Also that dbus-launch is not necessary for Xfce, it in fact breaks the setup. That could be the problem as well. |

Hi,
Same problem here, but i resolved reboot/shutdown as i said here however i still can't mount/umount anything as user. Thunar/Xfce detects well any usb key (icon appears on the desktop) but i can't neither browse nor mount/umount key. I've tried creating polkit rules like it was said there, no success.
See my sessions :
| Code: | Session1:
unix-user = '1000'
realname = '(null)'
seat = 'Seat1'
session-type = ''
active = FALSE
x11-display = ''
x11-display-device = ''
display-device = '/dev/tty1'
remote-host-name = ''
is-local = TRUE
on-since = '2011-01-25T07:50:37.505887Z'
login-session-id = '1'
idle-since-hint = '2011-01-25T07:51:10.002939Z'
Session2:
unix-user = '1000'
realname = '(null)'
seat = 'Seat1'
session-type = ''
active = TRUE
x11-display = ':0'
x11-display-device = '/dev/tty3'
display-device = '/dev/tty1'
remote-host-name = ''
is-local = TRUE
on-since = '2011-01-25T07:50:47.091448Z'
login-session-id = '1' |
Thanks for your help. |

Thunar is using gvfs, gvfs is using gnome-disk-utility and that's using udisks.
Also that dbus-launch is not necessary for Xfce, it in fact breaks the setup. That could be the problem as well. |
udisks can mount the usb stick with | Code: | | udisks --mount /dev/sdb1 |
gvfs cannot mount the same device | Code: | [hammett][/home/hammett/Desktop] $ gvfs-mount /dev/sdb1
Error mounting location: volume doesn't implement mount
|
GVFS 1.6.6-r1 is compiled with gdu,udev,-hal,-bluetooth
I have tried both with dbus-launch and without it and the issue is the same.
EDIT: This might be a shot in the dark, but I had created udev rules to make symlinks in /dev so I could manually mount them using /etc/fstab (for when I was using fluxbox). This could cause problems to udisks/gvfs?

first of all thanks for this sticky. nevertheless i don't get a working setup in conjunction with qingy (active=false).
are any qingy users around with a working configuration?
about a week ago i started a thread about my goal resulting in a non working setup. i really don't have a clue what might be wrong. i posted a lot of details here: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-860805.html
would be great if anybody would take a look at the thread. |

Yes, that would be a problem. For example, if you have cdrom in /etc/fstab, cdroms won't get mounted by Thunar (gvfs) anymore. |

Is there su or sudo in between somewhere where environment variables get lost? Like $CK_LAUNCH_SESSION or DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS.
Or perhaps you need to rebuild dbus-glib after dev-libs/glib upgrade? That's a guess, btw... |

not anymore. i switched to qingy and let it do all the login stuff since we/i found out it's not a good idea to login with "inittab-su-solutions". i defined a session in "/etc/X11/Sessions" which gets picked up by qingy.
| Code: | | ck-launch-session /usr/lib/xbmc/xbmc.bin --standalone --nolirc |
also had
| Code: | | ck-launch-session dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session /usr/lib/xbmc/xbmc.bin --standalone --nolirc |
i'm gonna try your proposal to rebuild dbus-glib after dev-libs/glib. atm i remove every single piece of consolekit to emerge it again cleanly.
| Quote: | | And propably stupid question but is ConsoleKit daemon running? /etc/init.d/consolekit... |
well, yes. it's started. 
on the other hand i have to mention that everything works like expected in case i login my user manually on the console and execute "startx" manually. so my conclusion that something goes wrong where qingy handles the login. |

Did you try without the 'nox11' parameter in /etc/pam.d/system-login (referred in first post in this thread) ? Need at least qingy 1.0.0 to support pam_ck_connector.so module from ConsoleKit. |

Nice thread, thanks ssuominen! If only I could refer to it when I set up my HAL-free system two months ago 
A lot of my initial problems was because I didn't have "CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL=y" in my kernel, and found out via comment #8 and #9 here:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/345585
Everything is working fairly well now, using 'startx' and openbox. My .xinitrc:
| Code: | | exec ck-launch-session openbox-session |
I don't have 'dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session' - what am I missing by leaving it out?
I also manually mount USB-disks with 'udisks --mount' because, as I found out here just now, I don't have the "gdu" USE-flag in GVFS and I use pcmanfm-0.9.7-r2. Think I will wait for pcmanfm-0.9.8 instead of compiling gnome-disk-utility though...

pcmanfm-0.9.8 seems to be working well, though I shut off automount (on my system)

Yes, that would be a problem. For example, if you have cdrom in /etc/fstab, cdroms won't get mounted by Thunar (gvfs) anymore. |
That was the key! Once I commented those lines, Thunar mounts the USB drives just fine.
Thanks a lot for you help Ssuominen!!

Newbie, take two:
@ssuominen, man, I do search a lot, and I found you posts most helpfull (latest with libpng) and I do most appreciate your input, but...
You are too far ahead, please bear with this newbie...
I have slim for login.
I will follow the steps from this thread's first post.
Below are the steps I found relevant. I do understand some of them, and I can do (execute) some of them. For the sake of all newbies, even if I do not understand, could you, I kindly ask, please, at least make the walktrough so I can do it?
1/ I will modify my make.config like so:
USE="-hal consolekit dbus device-mapper pam policykit udev"
1/ understood, can do.
2/
| Code: | C6820s ~ # emerge >=sys-apps/dbus-1.4.1 >=dev-libs/dbus-glib-0.92 >=sys-auth/pambase-20101024 >=gnome-base/gvfs-1.6.6-r1 >=sys-apps/shadow-4.1.4.2-r6 >=sys-fs/udisks-1.0.2 >=sys-power/upower-0.9.7 >=sys-auth/polkit-0.99-r1 -pv
-su: =sys-apps/dbus-1.4.1: No such file or directory
C6820s ~ # |
What is happening? is something wrong with this syntax?
If I use = insrtead of >= it can emerge.
2/ understood, can not do
3/ "Also install polkit-gnome, lxpolkit or polkit-kde depending on your desktop."
Now this is very confusing, is this tutorial for xfce? I have and use xfce...
...so what should I add to 2nd step?
3/ not understood, can not do
4/ "You need also polkit-gnome (...), or lxpolkit (this works with both of LXDE and Xfce in fact)"
even more confusing, or is this paragraph just the repetition of one above?
4/ not understood, can not do
5/ "Removing legacy cruft so they don't interfere with the setup"
what does 'cruft' mean. Regardless of my understanding, I can execute code (remove) listed below that line. Also, I have only hal, not others.
| Code: | C6820s ~ # emerge -pv -C hal policykit devicekit devicekit-disks devicekit-power
* This action can remove important packages! In order to be safer, use
* `emerge -pv --depclean <atom>` to check for reverse dependencies before
* removing packages.
>>> These are the packages that would be unmerged:
--- Couldn't find 'null/policykit' to unmerge.
--- Couldn't find 'null/devicekit' to unmerge.
--- Couldn't find 'null/devicekit-disks' to unmerge.
--- Couldn't find 'null/devicekit-power' to unmerge.
sys-apps/hal
selected: 0.5.14-r4
protected: none
omitted: none
All selected packages: sys-apps/hal-0.5.14-r4
>>> 'Selected' packages are slated for removal.
>>> 'Protected' and 'omitted' packages will not be removed.
C6820s ~ # |
At this point I do not understand, how must I put in my make.conf use "policykit" when I am about to uninstall "policykit"?!?
5/ not understood, can do
6/ "Hint" This is not to have hal ever after? - a line of actual code would be nice, please.
6/ understood, can not do
7/ kernel options, again, I could not make (understand) any of it
I followed the steps a couple of posts below to find out that I (guess) already have that (author: slack---line -thanks!).
7/ understood, can do
8/ Starting correct daemon
8/ understood, can do
9/ Method to start Xfce from startx... even I can see that this is not ok...
I am guessing I have to modify my .xinitrc file to loot like that output, right?
9/ understood, can do
10/ /etc/pam.d/system-login modification, excellent example!!!
10/ not understood, can do
11/ "Also make sure you have "ck-launch-session" included in the login_cmd line in /etc/slim.conf, if you use slim as your display manager."
Right now I have:
| Code: | | login_cmd exec /bin/bash -login /usr/share/slim/Xsession %session |
Could I bother you for correct line of code? Where exactly shoud I put "ck-launch-session"?
11/ not understood, can not do
12/ the end
| Code: | C6820s ~ # ck-list-sessions
C6820s ~ # |
12/ not understood, can not do
At the end of it all, the point is to do it, so I can eventually understand it.
I need OS now, and not in far future after I learned and understood all gentoo stuff so i can do it. Please do help to spread gentoo...
Thank you.

I might help a little bit here...

What is happening? is something wrong with this syntax?
If I use = insrtead of >= it can emerge.
2/ understood, can not do

Just emerge the packages without the >=. Just make sure you are emerging the correct versions. Emerge with -pv for verbose and pretend to check for versions.
If some packages you want to install are lower versions, add them to your package.keywords with | Code: | | echo name-of-package >> /etc/portage/package.keywords |
(note the ">>")

Now this is very confusing, is this tutorial for xfce? I have and use xfce...
...so what should I add to 2nd step?
3/ not understood, can not do

Install one of those... it can be either polkit-gnome, polkit-kde or lxpolkit. Since you use xfce, I would recommend polkit-gnome
| while true wrote: |
4/ "You need also polkit-gnome (...), or lxpolkit (this works with both of LXDE and Xfce in fact)"
even more confusing, or is this paragraph just the repetition of one above?

Install gnome-polkit and you're good to go

5/ "Removing legacy cruft so they don't interfere with the setup"
what does 'cruft' mean. Regardless of my understanding, I can execute code (remove) listed below that line. Also, I have only hal, not others.
| Code: | C6820s ~ # emerge -pv -C hal policykit devicekit devicekit-disks devicekit-power
* This action can remove important packages! In order to be safer, use
* `emerge -pv --depclean <atom>` to check for reverse dependencies before
* removing packages.
>>> These are the packages that would be unmerged:
--- Couldn't find 'null/policykit' to unmerge.
--- Couldn't find 'null/devicekit' to unmerge.
--- Couldn't find 'null/devicekit-disks' to unmerge.
--- Couldn't find 'null/devicekit-power' to unmerge.
sys-apps/hal
selected: 0.5.14-r4
protected: none
omitted: none
All selected packages: sys-apps/hal-0.5.14-r4
>>> 'Selected' packages are slated for removal.
>>> 'Protected' and 'omitted' packages will not be removed.
C6820s ~ # |
At this point I do not understand, how must I put in my make.conf use "policykit" when I am about to uninstall "policykit"?!?
5/ not understood, can do |
Uninstall hal and other dependencies so they do not mess up with consolekit/polkit
There are 2 packages of policykit: Policykit and Polkit. You need to install polkit and not the other one, but you need the USE flag in order to emerge.

It will be easier in this case to modify /etc/X11/Sessions/Xfce to add "ck-launch-session" just before startxfce4

You will not have any session unless you use ck-launch-session states above

Hello,
I've used in my slim.conf:
| Code: | | login_cmd exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch /bin/bash -login /usr/share/slim/Xsession %session |
but it didn't work :'(
also
| Code: | | ck-launch-session startxfce4 |
in /etc/X11/Sessions/Xfce do not solve the problem . :'(
Thank you |

After struggling unsuccessfully to get this working with a session launched from xdm I switched to Slim.
I have nothing but stable packages installed.
My slim.conf is unmodified.
My /etc/X11/Sessions/Xfce4 is unmodified.
My /etc/pam.d/system-login pam_ck_connector.so line is modified to remove the nox11 option.
I use a personal .xsession file because I need to do some things before launching Xfce4. The file looks like:
| Code: |
$ cat .xsession
#!/bin/bash
# ---8< ----- irrelevant stuff removed
exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session startxfce4
|
Everything seems to be working for me.
If you are not using a personal .xsession then you could make the same changes to /etc/X11/Sessions/Xfce4:
| Code: |
$ cat /etc/X11/Sessions/Xfce4
ck-launch-session dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session startxfce4
|
I am not 100% sure the "dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session" bit is required.
