Upon adding a GUI on top of a pre-existing cli-only install of devuan-alpha-4, the functionality of suspend, hibernate, switch-users, shutdown and restart were unavailable to the desktop user.
The easy solution for suspend and hibernate is to create a pkla file in folder /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d with contents: [Allow locally logged in members of group 'power' to put the hardware in suspend mode] Identity=unix-user:* Action=org.freedesktop.upower.suspend ResultAny=no ResultInactive=yes ResultActive=yes [Allow locally logged in members of group 'power' to put the hardware in hibernate mode] Identity=unix-user:* Action=org.freedesktop.upower.hibernate ResultAny=no ResultInactive=yes ResultActive=yes The more complex solution is to create a group 'power', add desktop users to that group, and then create the above file, but replacing 'unix-user:*' with unix-group:power'. I don't yet have a working solution for 'switch-users', 'shutdown', or 'restart'. -- hkp://keys.gnupg.net CA45 09B5 5351 7C11 A9D1 7286 0036 9E45 1595 8BC0 _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list [email protected] https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
