Hi
I have an issue with shutdown/reboot using LXDE systemd.
I have installed Linux pam, Polkit on top of lxde systemd, and when I
try to shutdown/reboot it asks for root password.
I have built this before the same way but never come across this.
Googling seems to point to polkit problem/bug, they give options to edit
files. I have checked these files against my other 1,s they are the same
as I have, I reinstalled polkit made no difference
Does this happen when you shutdown/reboot through the menu
or on command line?
It happens from the lxde logout. From a terminal it would be root
anyway, which is correct.
Check your X session:
$ loginctl show-session $XDG_SESSION_ID
|loginctl show-session $XDG_SESSION_ID EnableWallMessages=no NAutoVTs=6
KillUserProcesses=yes RebootToFirmwareSetup=no IdleHint=no

Check if polkitd and polkit authentication deamons are running:
ps -ef | grep -i polkit
Yes polkit deamons are running

I recall that I had problems in the past because the
/usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d directory and it's contents
where not under polkitd user and group ownership.
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep 2 20:46 actions
drwx------ 2 polkitd root 6 Aug 29 20:57 rules.d
There aren't any rules in rules.d.
There are ways listed on google how to hack around it, "edit files"
which I never had to do before.
Same polkit version on other machines as well, which works.
