Took me a bit to figure out why "restart" worked by "shutdown" didn't, until I realized that I'm not "brian"... > Action=org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.stop > ResultAny=yes > > In the same directory have udisks.pkla containing: > > [udisks] > Identity=unix-user:* > Action=org.freedesktop.udisks* > ResultAny=yes OK, this works. Whew. Thank you _very_ much indeed. What is the overall view of this issue? Is this a bug? Is your solution the right one? Should it be fed back to the XFCE team? From my perspective, this should Just Work, and the user shouldn't be expected to figure out a solution like this....
