[gentoo-user] failure of gnome-settings-daemon
Gnome-light became stable recently on x86 and I have now upgraded to 2.24. Unfortunately gnome-settings-daemon fails (silently). This prevents my normal login. Wnen using the gnome failsafe login, I can get in and work, but whenever I try systempreferencesappearance I get a dialog box saying that gnome-settings-setting cannot be started. Although I can get to the appearance dialog, various fonts are too big and can't be changed. Any suggestions would be appreciated. thanks, allan
Re: [gentoo-user] Loss of VT switching capabilities after Gnome 2.16 upgrade
I've been having problems with something on the lines of gnome-settings-daemon. When starting X, gnome starts up and I immediately get an issue with this daemon which makes reference to something relating to dbus and Bonobo in another place. It warns about potential theme/settings problems which make sense because things look a little dry, here (it has a big-java-applet feel). The upgrade guide at: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/gnome/howtos/gnome-2.16-upgrade.xml mentions possible problems with gnome-settings-daemon and what can be done.

[gentoo-user] Anyone running gnome on ~amd64?
I'm asking because gnome is working perfectly on my ~x86 machine but not on my ~amd64. The problem is that gnome-settings-daemon and pulse audio are crashing during startup, i.e. they appear as defunct processes once gnome is up and running. It's a bit like the bug a few months ago where the gnome-settings- daemon restarted too many times error message popped up, but this time there are no error messages anywhere. Another odd thing is that I can't use Ctrl-C to kill any processes that I start from an xterm. Anyone else having similar problems? Thanks.

Re: [gentoo-user] [~amd64] Some possibly (?) helpful hints re the big gnome-3.8 update
I am a gnome-3 user, who wants to continue with gnome-3. I understand now that to move to 3.8 requires I move from openRC to systemd and am trying to accomplish that now. I have so far only done the easy first steps. 0. I always back up my user files and /etc daily 1. I confirmed that my system still boots off my installation CD (just in case). 2. I added enough entries to /etc/portage/package.mask to prevent systemd being required (list at the end if others are interested). 3. Performed the kernel prerequisites from the wiki (most of which were already enabled). 4. My /run directory was already present and populated. Now I hit my first question The wiki says that upstream suggests that the /etc/mtab file should be a simlink to /proc/self/mounts. It then points out problems with and without the symlink. My current system has both files but with slightly different contents, specifically the entries for my filesystems, root (includes /usr) and several lvm2 lvs, say commit=0 0 2 in /etc/mtab but say data=ordered 0 0 in /proc/self/mounts Do you advising leaving it alone or executing ln -sf /proc/self/mounts /etc/mtab After that comes the big one emerge systemd USE=... systemd ... emerge --change-use /etc/init.d/udev restart Can the system be rebooted at this point (I realize init will still not use systemd) or must the entire conversion (including changing init) be completed before the system is bootable?

That error message became very familiar to some of us during the upgrade from gnome 2.24 to 2.26 on ~x86 a few months ago. The underlying problem is that gnome-session tries to start a session dbus and fails (I am told) due to a bug in gnome-session. So the fix is to start gnome-session with 'dbus-launch --exit-with-session gnome-session' in your ~/.xinitrc (if you use startx.) Alternatively you can use 'exec /etc/X11/Sessions/Gnome' in your .xinitrc, or, if you use gdm, you can set XSESSION=Gnome in /etc/rc.conf, which executes exactly the same shellscript indirectly. The whole point of the above is that a session dbus has to be running *before* gnome-settings-daemon is started, or you will get the error you quoted above and nothing works right after that.

If you don't have the settings-daemon running then such an error would be expected. But do you know what this error causes? If it is a harmless warning message, I think it is better to ignore it than install gnome-settings-daemon, which pulls 24 other packages. It's harmless, so ignore it. If you are not using gnome as your desktop then you don't need the settings-daemon.

Another odd thing is that I can't use Ctrl-C to kill any processes that I start from an xterm. Anyone else having similar problems? Thanks. I had the same problem. In my case it was caused by x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-180.35 and changing to a different version fixed it.

My requirements are install gnome-light 2.22.0 or later. Thanks Paul Paul, What this means is that you have some software installed on your system already that prevents you from getting gnome-light. In this case, it looks like you have the two packages gtk-doc-am and control-center, which are preventing gnome-settings daemon and gtk-doc, respectively, from being installed. The usual way of fixing this problem is to do an emerge -avC on the packages that are blocking to remove them and allow your gnome-light installation to proceed. However, remember that some other packages currently installed on your system may depend on these packages, so you may not want to go into this blindly. I'm not an expert on the setup of gnome dependencies, so I can't recommend this course of action unreservedly; it's just a thought. In the future, you'll get better (and likely more courteous) responses if you start your own thread, rather than taking over someone else's.

[gentoo-user] Loss of VT switching capabilities after Gnome 2.16 upgrade
I'm sure this has been tackled before elsewhere but after my upgrade to Gnome 2.16 I lost the ability to use the CTRL+ALT+F1 (F2, F3, ...) sequence to switch out of X so I can flip to other VTs. Ideas? Also, while I'm at it, since the upgrade, I've been having problems with something on the lines of gnome-settings-daemon. When starting X, gnome starts up and I immediately get an issue with this daemon which makes reference to something relating to dbus and Bonobo in another place. It warns about potential theme/settings problems which make sense because things look a little dry, here (it has a big-java-applet feel). I've recompiled everything and checked all reverse dependencies. The only other thing I can try might be to move my ~/.gnome2 stuff out of the way and let it recreate the directory+configs manually. Again, ideas? Thanks. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

[gentoo-user] banshee installation without systemd
Hello, after reading the thread about systemd somebody mentioned sys-fs/eudev. I decided used because I had systemd only to used udev and unmerge systemd. Now I can't use Banshee which I use as my music player because of the next dependency tree: banshee - gnome-base/gnome-settings-daemon - sys-apps/gentoo-systemd-integration - sys-apps/systemd and systemd can't be used because it conflicts with eudev. Is there anyway to avoid emerge systemd in this case? Thank you, Quim

If you don't have the settings-daemon running then such an error would be expected. But do you know what this error causes? If it is a harmless warning message, I think it is better to ignore it than install gnome-settings-daemon, which pulls 24 other packages. It's harmless, so ignore it.

Re: [gentoo-user] Is there any way out of this...?
On Sat, 7 Dec 2013 12:46:34 +0100 Róbert Čerňanský ope...@tightmail.com wrote: That is actually what I have asked just a few days ago in thread Systemd as drop-in replacement for udev? and here I have another answer. :-) `grep systemd /usr/portage/virtual/udev/udev-208.ebuild` confirms from the Portage view that systemd is a provider of udev functionality. Since I do not have another udev package besides systemd, I can confirm you that systemd provides udev; if I reboot to OpenRC, udev continues to work. So, yes, you can use it as a drop-in replacement. This is the actual problem, which I have already covered; just enable the openrc-force USE flag on =gnome-base/gnome-settings-daemon-3.8.6.1 or alternatively mask =gnome-base/gnome-settings-daemon-3.8. You need to put -openrc-force in /etc/portage/profile/use.mask to start with and then you can toggle it as you see fit. As you don't intend to run GNOME as far as I understood, this USE flag doesn't need to be masked for you. What about the message in gnome-settings-daemon ebuild? gnome-settings-daemon needs Systemd to be *running* for working properly. ... That message is broad and does not detail what you need it for, you'll find that parts of it continue whereas others don't; if you don't need to run GNOME itself, then you probably do not need most of the parts that gnome-settings-daemon has to offer. Also, Canek in the thread I have mentioned wrote: The GNOME stuff that requires systemd will not work under OpenRC from 3.10 on, you could get strange fails with gdm and gnome-settings-daemon. I cannot confirm whether they have tightened the integration. So *I think* for the long run, if not using GNOME, it could be better to get rid GNOME applications (in my case it was just GDM) and be free to choose either of systemd, udev or eudev OR fully migrate to systemd (and be able to use GNOME apps). I've switched to systemd while I was on XFCE, just because I have a preference for how its usage and I was looking for ways to decrease my boot time (due to kernel testing, not for bragging rights); I've actually switched in a time that GNOME 3.6 - 3.8 was broken on me due to some RandR incompatibility causing the login screen to break. After I pinpointed that bug and upstream fixed that bug I could use 3.8 again, after not having used GNOME since 3.4; I was happy to be back. If it weren't for the news, I wouldn't even have noticed the systemd dependency being present; I just don't see reason to switch away from GNOME or systemd so all I can see: Try different things and see what you like, don't listen to others. XFCE is now my favorite go-to DE if my main DE breaks; if XFCE broke as well, I'm going to question whether I still want to continue using Gentoo. Given that I'm not the type of person that would use KDE or one of the minimal DE or WM's out there... Just a side story of how I got hooked on systemd without being forced to use it and how I'm hooked on GNOME despite it being broken by one or two lines of code that don't take my odd system hardware into account: YMMV, there's not a single piece of software that fits everyone... If you had bad experiences with GNOME and absolutely don't want it; then yes, I think getting rid of associated applications is the way forward as to avoid having to go through unnecessary maintenance by the changes that might happen with their dependencies. PS: This does not imply that I consider other init systems or DEs as bad; I would switch to OpenRC if logid would be forked and boot time decreased (although Patrick demonstrated in a blog post you can lower it quite a lot), I'm also packaging a minimal init system soon. As for other DEs, I have simply not tried them long enough to judge them... -- With kind regards, Tom Wijsman (TomWij) Gentoo Developer E-mail address : tom...@gentoo.org GPG Public Key : 6D34E57D GPG Fingerprint : C165 AF18 AB4C 400B C3D2 ABF0 95B2 1FCD 6D34 E57D signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Re: [gentoo-user] can't build gnome 3.2 (3.0 was ok)
On Tue, Oct 11, 2011 at 3:13 PM, Allan Gottlieb gottl...@nyu.edu wrote: For me, gnome 3.2 has been quite a regression over 3.0. Weird; for me it works so much better than 3.0. Summary: gdm-3.2.0-r1 crashes and when I revert to the 3.0 gdm, I get to the login screen but then gnome-shell crashes. I tried to downgrade to gnome-shell-3.0.2-r1, but that needs libgnome-menu, which is not in portage/layman. The crash of gdm is described in bug #385525. The crash of gnome-shell is described in the following .xsession-errors file (tracker-miner-fs.log and tracker-store.log are empty). any help would be appreciated. allan Are you running the updated git of gnome-overlay? I had troubles with gnome-settings-daemon until a couple of days. Can you try to start GNOME with a clean config (no ~/.config, no ~/.local, no ~/.gconf, no ~/.gnome*). Just backup your current config and remove it from $HOME, or try to start GNOME with a dummy new user. Also, in my case, having gnome-shell extensions installed caused me problems when upgrading.

Re: [gentoo-user] Systemd as drop-in replacement for udev?

My question is (hopefully) simple: Can I use systemd as drop-in replacement for udev? In other words, can I pretend that systemd is udev and continue using OpenRC as with udev itself? I would then apply just udev 204 to 208 update instructions (http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Udev/upgrade). I am using WindowMaker and systemd was pulled in by gnome-settings-daemon which in turn was pulled in by gdm. I would like to stick with gdm. The GNOME stuff that requires systemd will not work under OpenRC from 3.10 on, you could get strange fails with gdm and gnome-settings-daemon. If it's gdm-3.8, then I think you can use systemd as udev replacement together with OpenRC, and I believe some people did it successfully. Thanks. I have enabled openrc-force use flag found this in gnome-settings-daemon emerge log, which confirms what you have said: gnome-settings-daemon needs Systemd to be *running* for working properly. Please follow the this guide to migrate: http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Systemd You are enabling 'openrc-force' USE flag to skip systemd requirement, this can lead to unexpected problems and is not supported neither by upstream neither by Gnome Gentoo maintainers. If you suffer any problem, you will need to disable this USE flag system wide and retest before opening any bug report. So the it is clear to me now. I will try openrc-force as temporal solution until I'll find a new display manager and give heart breaking good by to GDM. You could *try* to run systemd and see if you like it. Many of us do.

Doesnt sound right Indeed, it wasn't right -- all gnome apps cause the same error message. There is a gconf setting (presumably obsolete now) that asks gnome-settings-daemon to load the 'gnomebreakpad' module to handle crash reports. Unchecking that box in the gconf-editor silences the error message. GConf is scheduled to be replaced with some other gizmo in gnome-3.0 anyway. If gnome-3.0 turns out anything like kde-4.0 I'll be deleting it very quickly.

How about using XFCE? I think the last time I installed it it did not force use of systemd; it also can use many GNOME tools and apps if you really need GNOME. I personally got tired of GNOME and its toomany/toomajor change policies and went to KDE (just like Linus Torvalds.) In KDE there is a slightly different method of configuring things that may take a bit of getting used to. I thought there was a MATE overlay but I can't easily find it right now. -- G.

William That's true, gnome3.8 will require you to install pulseaudio-2 Are you sure, I know there have been a couple of times in the past where Gnome has leaned towards Linux only but they have always steered clear eventually. I know of one guy who runs a network of hundreds of Gnome/OpenBSD machines that may wish to know about that as I think he is already getting fed up with the increasing amount of code he has to write in order to keep the port working. Yes I'm sure, I have gnome 3.8 installed on my machine. gnome-settings-daemon and gnome-shell have hard deps on pulseaudio. signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
Re: [gentoo-user] blocking packages when emerge gnome-light

When running emerge -av gnome-light I get : [blocks B ] gnome-base/control-center-2.22 (is blocking gnome-base/gnome-settings-daemon-2.22.1) [blocks B ] dev-util/gtk-doc-am (is blocking dev-util/gtk-doc-1.8-r2) I am not asking anyone to wade through my make.conf and various portage files but if someone who knows the system obviously better than I do could please point me in the direction of how to fix this issue I would be grateful. My requirements are install gnome-light 2.22.0 or later. Thanks Paul Paul, What this means is that you have some software installed on your system already that prevents you from getting gnome-light. In this case, it looks like you have the two packages gtk-doc-am and control-center, which are preventing gnome-settings daemon and gtk-doc, respectively, from being installed. The usual way of fixing this problem is to do an emerge -avC on the packages that are blocking to remove them and allow your gnome-light installation to proceed. However, remember that some other packages currently installed on your system may depend on these packages, so you may not want to go into this blindly. I'm not an expert on the setup of gnome dependencies, so I can't recommend this course of action unreservedly; it's just a thought. In the future, you'll get better (and likely more courteous) responses if you start your own thread, rather than taking over someone else's. You would also do well to look through the Gentoo Handbook - there's a wonderful section at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=2chap=1 that talks at length about blocked packages and what to do to resolve your issues. -Tim Thanks Tim I have now fixed the problem. My confusion was caused by the fact that when I tried emerge --unmerge gtk-doc-am I was told that gtk-doc-am was not installed. It turns out that gtk-doc was installed and so running the command emerge -avC gtk-doc as you suggested did the job.

Just backup your current config and remove it from $HOME, or try to start GNOME with a dummy new user. I can't get to the machine tonight, but will try it tomorrow. Also, in my case, having gnome-shell extensions installed caused me problems when upgrading. I don't have the extensions installed.

Re: [gentoo-user] Anyone running gnome on ~amd64?
I use Gnome on ~amd64 and everything is working fine. I don't use pulse audio, just alsa. I also had those issues with x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-180.35 as Paul said. Other than that I can't think of something right now. Are all packages well? `revdep-rebuild` returns no problems ? 2009/5/1 Paul Hartman paul.hartman+gen...@gmail.compaul.hartman%2bgen...@gmail.com On Fri, May 1, 2009 at 2:51 PM, walt w41...@gmail.com wrote: I'm asking because gnome is working perfectly on my ~x86 machine but not on my ~amd64. The problem is that gnome-settings-daemon and pulse audio are crashing during startup, i.e. they appear as defunct processes once gnome is up and running. It's a bit like the bug a few months ago where the gnome-settings- daemon restarted too many times error message popped up, but this time there are no error messages anywhere. Another odd thing is that I can't use Ctrl-C to kill any processes that I start from an xterm. Anyone else having similar problems? Thanks. I had the same problem. In my case it was caused by x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-180.35 and changing to a different version fixed it. Maybe you should check to see if you are using this version, or try a different version (older/newer)... if you're not using nvidia-drviers at all, then I have no idea what to say except good luck :)

Weichinger li...@xunil.at wrote: Am 30.01.2013 18:36, schrieb Hinnerk van Bruinehsen: I've just installed systemd on one of my systems to give it a test and I had similar problems due to the systemd useflag on policykit being hardmasked (it also pulled in consolekit because of that). Since the errors are very similar you may check your useflags on policykit and - if necessary remove the use-mask of systemd for policykit. As Hinnerk said, it could be a PolKit problem, but you said that you had unmasked the systemd USE flag from PolKit. The new information I see in this mail is that you have =gnome-base/gnome-session- installed; why do you have a live version? Did you use --autounmask to install GNOME? I think that's the problem: gnome-session has no live version in the tree; therefore you are installing it from the GNOME overlay. The live version of gnome-session in the GNOME overlay doesn't use a specific version, tag or branch to checkout, so depending on when you installed it, it's possible you are running gnome-session-3.7.x. I would keep gnome-session keyworded, but unmasked; that would force the install of the 3.6.2 version. Also, if you have more live versions, I would recommend downgrading them to the last 3.6.x version. GNOME 3.6 is not masked in Gentoo, just keyworded.

Seems like gnome-settings-daemon version 3 no longer has the pulseaudio use flag, so it wants pulseaudio, which needs alsa-plugins built with the pulseaudio use flag. I wouldn't mind using PulseAudio, but ist starts automatically when I play movies, and I get no sound output in mplayer or VLC. And there are weird side effects, sometimes playback stops, I have to make it run again by skipping back and forward. Sometimes videos play much faster than normal. Is MPlayer using PulseAudio? Maybe if it did, the problem would go away; I have this in my ~/.mplayer/config: ao=pulse For sure, VLC has an option to use PA by default also. Oh, I think it does, but there was no sound output. Sorry for not mentioning this. I had to switch manually to another sound device, HDA ATI something, I cannot look now because I am not near my desktop PC. If it would just work, then I could make my players use it if they don't already. But what about old applications like Quake3, will they still work? Of course. I have been using PulseAudio since it became stable in Gentoo (circa October 2010); in my experience, making everything sound related going through PulseAudio makes everything work. Most modern applications support directly PulseAudio; for the old ones that don't, you can make all ALSA sound go through PulseAudio like this: # cat /etc/asound.conf pcm.!default { type pulse } ctl.!default { type pulse } (If you want it for all users; for your user only, use $HOME/.asoundrc). So I would like to get rid of it. Is this possible? I don't really use Gnome, but I like to have it to see how it develops. And I wouldn't like to remove it just because of a sound problem. GNOME 3 depends (strongly, I think) on PulseAudio; you don't say which version of GNOME are you using, but in GNOME 2 PA was optional. GNOME 3. I don't use it, but I wanted to look a little into its desktop philosophy. But do you use gnome-session? If you are not using gnome-session, I don't think you can see that much of its desktop philosophy. Maybe the PulseAudio problem is the same as I had with ALSA, I have two internal cards, and I had to tell ALSA not to prefer the SPDIF one. Maybe I have to do the same with PulseAudio, but I do not know how. Try media-sound/pavucontrol; you can select which card the sounds goes through, and which output to use (HDMI, for example). Thanks, I just installed it. It shows the HDMI device on top, and only this on has the green checkbox enabled. Maybe simply activating the analog port will make it run. I'll see this in a week days when I'm back at my PC. And the weird playback effects are spooky, I'd prefer to keep things as they are, at the moment I'm happy with plain ALSA. I don't think it is possible to uninstall completely PA in GNOME 3; I remember it was possible in GNOME 2. It got installed when I emerged GNOME 3, but until end of march alsa-plugins was not installed. Then pulseaudio went from 1.1-r1 to 1.99.2, since then it needs the alsa-plugins package, and my trouble started. Mmmh? I have the latest GNOME 3.2, and I'm still using media-sound/pulseaudio-1.1-r1. Perhaps you used autounmask? I would try to go back to 1.1-r1; it's stable, after all, and GNOME doesn't need the bleeding edge on PulseAudio. And what is starting the pulseaudio process? I can kill it, but it comes back the next time I run mplayer. Is there a way to just disable it? If I recall correctly, the GNOME session manager will keep starting PA if the daemon dies. Maybe I had a GNOME session running in parallel? I don't think so, but I'm not sure. If you are trying to use any GNOME core technology (like GNOME Shell), it will for sure start automatically gnome-session, I think. Some applications can run without it, but many will try to connect to some desktop session, and maybe some will actually start it. GNOME session then will keep starting PulseAudio. I don't understand how do you not use GNOME 3, but you want to see its desktop philosophy. Do you run KDE or XFCE, and try to run the shell on top of that?

Re: [gentoo-user] can no longer switch to a VT - OT
Hello, sorry for the long wait to reply, I switched to E17 and I have the same problem as with Gnome, still can switch to a VT... Ifr I open a term and try the usual Ctrl + Alt + F1 to F7 key combination I get : PQRS;7~;7~;7~ Which I don't ever remember getting in the past. I tried killing gnome-settings-manager but that doesn't change anything either. Any ideas? Thanks, Gabriel Benno Schulenberg wrote: Gabriel Rossetti wrote: I recently switched to ~x86 and with it to xorg 7.x. Are you sure it's due to upgrading Xorg and not Gnome? See http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.user/175870 I saw that the xkb syntax changed, so I updated it accordingly, but now I can't switch to VT's anymore. When using almost exactly your arrangement it works fine here. $ setxkbmap -print xkb_keymap { xkb_keycodes { include xfree86+aliases(qwerty) }; xkb_types { include complete }; xkb_compat{ include complete+lednum(group_lock) }; xkb_symbols { include pc(pc104)+us(basic)+us(intl):2+ch(fr):3+group(ctrls_toggle)+level3 (win_switch)+ctrl(nocaps)+compose(menu)+eurosign(e) }; xkb_geometry { include pc(pc104) }; }; If it's not the failing Gnome daemon, maybe it is Gnome interfering in some other way with the keyboard? Here I had to switch off all things in KDE's Control Center Regional Keyboard Layout to make the settings in xorg.conf work. Benno

Re: [gentoo-user] Gnome without PulseAudio?

Seems like gnome-settings-daemon version 3 no longer has the pulseaudio use flag, so it wants pulseaudio, which needs alsa-plugins built with the pulseaudio use flag. I wouldn't mind using PulseAudio, but ist starts automatically when I play movies, and I get no sound output in mplayer or VLC. And there are weird side effects, sometimes playback stops, I have to make it run again by skipping back and forward. Sometimes videos play much faster than normal. Is MPlayer using PulseAudio? Maybe if it did, the problem would go away; I have this in my ~/.mplayer/config: ao=pulse For sure, VLC has an option to use PA by default also. Oh, I think it does, but there was no sound output. Sorry for not mentioning this. I had to switch manually to another sound device, HDA ATI something, I cannot look now because I am not near my desktop PC. If it would just work, then I could make my players use it if they don't already. But what about old applications like Quake3, will they still work? So I would like to get rid of it. Is this possible? I don't really use Gnome, but I like to have it to see how it develops. And I wouldn't like to remove it just because of a sound problem. GNOME 3 depends (strongly, I think) on PulseAudio; you don't say which version of GNOME are you using, but in GNOME 2 PA was optional. GNOME 3. I don't use it, but I wanted to look a little into its desktop philosophy. Maybe the PulseAudio problem is the same as I had with ALSA, I have two internal cards, and I had to tell ALSA not to prefer the SPDIF one. Maybe I have to do the same with PulseAudio, but I do not know how. Try media-sound/pavucontrol; you can select which card the sounds goes through, and which output to use (HDMI, for example). Thanks, I just installed it. It shows the HDMI device on top, and only this on has the green checkbox enabled. Maybe simply activating the analog port will make it run. I'll see this in a week days when I'm back at my PC. And the weird playback effects are spooky, I'd prefer to keep things as they are, at the moment I'm happy with plain ALSA. I don't think it is possible to uninstall completely PA in GNOME 3; I remember it was possible in GNOME 2. It got installed when I emerged GNOME 3, but until end of march alsa-plugins was not installed. Then pulseaudio went from 1.1-r1 to 1.99.2, since then it needs the alsa-plugins package, and my trouble started. And what is starting the pulseaudio process? I can kill it, but it comes back the next time I run mplayer. Is there a way to just disable it? If I recall correctly, the GNOME session manager will keep starting PA if the daemon dies. Maybe I had a GNOME session running in parallel? I don't think so, but I'm not sure. Thanks for the input on this, Wonko
Re: [gentoo-user] systemd - are we forced to switch?
ConsoleKit is for all practical purposes unmaintained, and all of the packages you mentioned it support systemd just fine. Emerge systemd, and purge CK from your system; I did that almost a year ago.
