Stefan, do you use systemd? David told me that he could only check the bug on monday, so I did a little research on the weekend. I installed Gentoo in a QEMU VM (using gnome-boxes), to see if I could reproduce the bug in a unmodified Gentoo installation (I use my systemd-only overlay). I could reproduce the bug, but I found a reasonable workaround: cat /etc/portage/package.use/no-systemd gnome-base/gdm -systemd gnome-base/gnome-session -systemd gnome-base/gnome-shell -systemd sys-auth/polkit -systemd If those four packages have systemd support disabled, then everything works as expected (the suspend/hibernate options returns, I can mount/umount USB sticks, etc.) If at least one of those packages have the systemd USE flag, then the bug appears. I updated the bug report (and I'm not really sure the bug is in polkit or gnome-shell): https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53905 This workaround also works in my systemd-only overlay. So, if you have the systemd flag in any of those four packages, disable it and everything should work. Just to be explicit, the versions are: gnome-base/gdm-3.4.1-r1 gnome-base/gnome-session-3.4.2.1 gnome-base/gnome-shell-3.4.2 sys-auth/polkit-0.107:0 I was really looking forward to use the integration of systemd into GNOME, but I suppose it's still a little green. Hopefully we will find and fix the exact bug soon; meanwhile, this workaround is much more usable than using pmount, pm-suspend, etc. Regards. -- Canek Peláez Valdés Posgrado en Ciencia e Ingeniería de la Computación Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México
