Hi,
Do you have consolekit installed?
 
if not you can try at  your own _risk_

apt-get download libelogind0
apt-get download libpam-elogind
apt-get download elogind
dpkg --purge --force-all libpam-ck-connector
dpkg -i --force-all ./libelogind0*.deb
dpkg -i --force-all ./elogind*.deb
dpkg -i --force-all ./libpam-elogind*.deb

I told you at your own risk.....

Ciao,
Tito
