[Bug 851055] Re: [Oneiric] 'Not Authorized' error given when mounting device

 

This seems to have broken with the lightdm upgrade. Now, I get 2
consolekit sessions:

chr1s@farnsworth:~$ ck-list-sessions 
Session3:
	unix-user = '1000'
	realname = 'Chris Coulson'
	seat = 'Seat1'
	session-type = ''
	active = FALSE
	x11-display = ':0'
	x11-display-device = '/dev/tty7'
	display-device = ''
	remote-host-name = ''
	is-local = TRUE
	on-since = '2011-09-15T21:23:40.636038Z'
	login-session-id = '4294967295'
Session4:
	unix-user = '1000'
	realname = 'Chris Coulson'
	seat = 'Seat1'
	session-type = ''
	active = TRUE
	x11-display = ''
	x11-display-device = ''
	display-device = '/dev/tty7'
	remote-host-name = ''
	is-local = TRUE
	on-since = '2011-09-15T21:23:40.648390Z'
	login-session-id = '4294967295'
	idle-since-hint = '2011-09-15T21:24:11.284720Z'

the inactive session is the one which should be active, so Policykit
thinks I'm not on the active console.

Downgrading lightdm to 0.9.5-0ubuntu2 and restarting seems to fix it (I
get 1 session, as expected now):

chr1s@farnsworth:~$ ck-list-sessions 
Session2:
	unix-user = '1000'
	realname = 'Chris Coulson'
	seat = 'Seat1'
	session-type = ''
	active = TRUE
	x11-display = ':0'
	x11-display-device = '/dev/tty7'
	display-device = ''
	remote-host-name = ''
	is-local = TRUE
	on-since = '2011-09-15T21:40:33.541834Z'
	login-session-id = '4294967295'
