I'm having the same problem (as do others). ps auxw | grep -i console shows, that console-kit-daemon is actually running. And killall console-kit-daemon, /etc/init.d/consolekit start fixes the problems. It looks as if something has started consolekit earlier but not by using /etc/init.d/consolekit . Unfortunately, I don't know how to debug which is starting consolekit. Furthermore, I'd like to know where the source of the start-stop-daemon is. Helmut.
