 Posted: Sun Aug 23, 2015 7:19 am Post subject: [SOLVED] xfce4-session-logout can't shutdown or other |
 |
|
Hi guys,
I've a problem with xfce, exactly xfce4-session-logout, part of xfce4-session.
If I run it, i can't shutdown or restart or suspend or hibernate the system. I can only exit from xfce and return to shell.
After a system crash, I've formatted and reinstalled the entire system, but the problem is still here.
Suspend and hibernation support in the kernel are enabled (in fact echo disk or mem > /sys/power/state works).
Dbus daemon is OK.
| Code: | dave@huigg ~ $ equery uses xfce4-session
[ Legend : U - final flag setting for installation]
[ : I - package is installed with flag ]
[ Colors : set, unset ]
* Found these USE flags for xfce-base/xfce4-session-4.12.1:
U I
- - debug : Enable extra debug codepaths, like asserts and extra
output. If you want to get meaningful backtraces see https:
//wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Quality_Assurance/Backtraces
+ + nls : Add Native Language Support (using gettext - GNU locale
utilities)
+ + policykit : Enable PolicyKit authentication support
- - systemd : Enable use of systemd-specific libraries and features like
socket activation or session tracking
+ + upower : Enable power management support
+ + xscreensaver : Add support for XScreenSaver extension

Polkit is working:
dave@huigg ~ $ pkexec
(Password requested with GUI)
huigg ~ #

Feel free to request other files or log. 
Thanks in advance!
Edit: If I login as root and startxfce4, all works.
Edit2:
| Code: | dave@huigg ~ $ ls -l /sbin/{shutdown,reboot,poweroff}
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 30 lug 10.30 /sbin/poweroff -> halt
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 30 lug 10.30 /sbin/reboot -> halt
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 23128 30 lug 10.30 /sbin/shutdown

Edit3: Solved myself |

SOLVED! The solution was: Polkit is not set correctly.
you need to allow the programs to do root actions without requiring a password:
Taken from Arch Wiki
| Code: | /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/49-nopasswd_global.rules
/* Allow members of the wheel group to execute any actions
* without password authentication, similar to "sudo NOPASSWD:"
*/
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
if (subject.isInGroup("wheel")) {
return polkit.Result.YES;
}
});
